Description

It is not an understatement to say that the Sermon on the Mount has changed the world.  It's the most famous sermon in all of history and one that Jesus preached to his disiciples.  It is powerful, enigmatic, transformational and one that has had the best of minds in history wrestle with its truths.


The Sermon on the Mount is found in Matthew and Luke, but here we will look from Matthew's perspective.  It begins with the Beatitudes and that is what the video series will cover.  Such issues will be tackled such as

  • What does mean the kingdom of heaven?

  • Who are the poor in spirit?

  • What's the difference between peacemakers and peacekeepers?

  • And how on earth can anyone be considered "pure in heart"?

  • What's so special about Jesus' words to the persecuted?

When a critical mass of people understands and practices the message of the beatitudes, the world will change in dramatic ways.  And so that change begins with us gaining understanding. 

When Jesus finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching.  It is the desire of this course that you too will begin to be amazing at the wisdom, understanding and simple grace of Jesus Christ.
