Preacher: Rev. Dr. Donna Claycomb Sokol, Pastor

Scripture: Matthew 5:1-12

Years ago, when asked what brings him hope for the church today, theologian N.T. Wright pointed to something simple yet profound: ordinary believers living out the Sermon on the Mount in a world aching for healing. That everyday faithfulness, he said, is what first spread the gospel—and what still transforms communities today. 

This week, we will begin to dig deep into the Sermon on the Mount and ponder what it might mean for us to live it out today— bringing hope and healing to an aching world.
