This Sunday we’ll be looking again Matthew 5:13-16, which speaks of Jesus' calling on his people to be agents of renewal and restoration in the world- a calling that endures in any and every circumstance we find ourselves in.
Next Sunday we will dive more deeply into the two key metaphors Jesus employs in this teaching: salt and light. But this Sunday, we'll focus on verse 15: “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
We will not be meeting for corporate worship but have provided a self-guided worship plan for yout to follow with family, neighbors, or friends.
We're going to spend one last week in the beatitudes, but this time we're going to look at them as a complete whole.
We look at the last of the eight beatitudes this week and explore what persecution meant in Jesus's time and what it could mean today.
This week we'll continue in our study with the 7th beatitude, "Blessed are the peacemakers."
This Sunday, we'll look at two beatitudes about being merciful and pure in heart. What do these concepts mean today, and how are they related to each other? Join us as we explore those questions together.
This Sunday we'll turn to the next beatitude, “Blessed are the meek…”
This week we'll continue to explore the upside-down Kingdom of Jesus through the lens of the beatitudes. This Sunday we'll look at the second beatitude, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”
This week we’ll learn about what it means to be “poor in spirit” and why Jesus promises that the Kingdom belongs to such people.
This week, we're kicking off a new sermon series on the Sermon on the Mount, one of the most important teachings of Jesus.
