Week 5 (November 23): Sermon on the Mount: The Way of the King

Before the early church had buildings or budgets, it had Jesus’ manifesto—the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5–7). On a hillside, the King redefines life in His Kingdom: blessedness that runs against the grain, righteousness that is deeper than rule-keeping, enemy-love that disarms cycles of hate, prayer that trusts the Father, and wisdom that builds on rock. 

This message gathers the Beatitudes, salt-and-light calling, the Lord’s Prayer, freedom from anxiety, and the call to do what Jesus says. If you’ve ever asked, “What does discipleship look like in real life?”, Jesus answers here—clearly, concretely, and compellingly.
