Shabbat Sermon: Linden Tree with Rabbi Wes Gardenswartz




From the Bimah: Jewish Lessons for Life show

Summary: <p>The story is told of the time that the Pope and the Prime Minister of Israel decided to deepen the relationship between the Vatican and the Jewish state by co-cohosting a friendly golf game that would be played by premier Catholic and Jewish golfers.  The Pope invited Jack Nicklaus to be the Vatican representative.  Jack Nicklaus is a devout Catholic and a great golfer.  After the golf game, Jack Nicklaus goes to the Vatican to report.</p> <p>Your Holiness, I have good news and bad news.  The good news is that I played the best golf I have ever played. God was with me like never before.  My play was inspired from above.</p> <p>Then what is the bad news?</p> <p>The bad news is that I lost by three strokes to Rabbi Tiger Woods.</p> <p>Unfortunately, today, relations between Jews and the non-Jewish world are no laughing matter.  </p> <p>Follow this link to view the sermon and watch the live streaming version on our website  <a href="https://www.templeemanuel.com/rabbi/rabbi-wes-gardenswartz/linden-tree/">https://www.templeemanuel.com/rabbi/rabbi-wes-gardenswartz/linden-tree/</a> </p>
