About this event

Below you will find links to the podcasts, playlists, videos, and scriptures references that form the material for our first discussion.

The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus’ most well-known teaching and one of history’s most famous speeches ever. Jesus delivered this sermon 2,000 years ago, and the implications of these words are still shockingly relevant and meaningful.

The Bible Project’s “Sermon on the Mount” series offers a deep dive into to the meaning and context surrounding Jesus’s exposition of the Kingdom of God and New creation. As disciples desiring to be shaped by the lifestyle of Jesus and the biblical narrative, deeply engaging scripture together is an important piece of our discipleship walk. Please join us immediately following the prayer call Friday January 31st (zoom link).

Imagine a humanity where people are overflowing with the eternal buzz promise. This might look like communities of people growing in freedom, living with purpose, and shaping culture through service with hope. Families and friends honoring one another, encouraging each one to dream creatively by innovating ideas that improve the quality of life for others, together discovering and developing our unique and creative gifts. Supportive communities that think wisely by forgiving one another as we walk humbly through brokenness, learn to listen responsively, act justly, and provide for others in the face of hardship and suffering. Human beings learning to understand what it means to live beautifully by cultivating diverse yet unified families, extending grace and mercy as we establish sustainable patterns of work and rest, caring for the needs of our communities, and serving those in need from a heart that is at peace.
