This is a 'background' study for anybody who doesn't know much about the Beatitudes / Sermon on the Mount and should give you a basic introduction to what this entire series is all about. I hope it helps; it is as short as I could do.
For those of you who do know all about the Beatitudes / Sermon on the Mount and wonder why this series even exists, this background study should give you a decent understanding as to why I would do such a series as this.
