LIVING THE SERMON SERIES

Millions have read it. Christians in all ages have loved it. Even non-Christians have praised its moral teaching. The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most famous and beloved sections of in all of Scripture. It is about how those in the kingdom of heaven should live. Rather than starting with the outside, Jesus literally goes straight to the heart of the matter in the Beatitudes. He teaches us to get our hearts right first. In this episode, we will see the difference between self-confidence and trusting God. We will also learn that some tears are good and others are not. Each of these “Be Attitudes” begins with the word “Blessed.” If we want to be blessed by God, this is where it begins.
