Almost every individual views themselves as a "basically a good person," despite behaviors which indicate otherwise. Similarly, most people espouse that doing good is among the highest values, although few "walk the walk." Where does Judaism place the value of goodness in the hierarchy of important Jewish values and why? What do the Jewish sources reveal about the importance of being a good person and living that lifestyle in practice? This podcast will show the differences between talking about being good and actually living it.
