Pastor Pete teaches from the story of the lepers in Luke chapter 17. In this scripture, Jesus is reminding us of God's mercy and shows us that there really is hope for the hopeless.

As we wrap up our study in the sermon on the mount Jesus is describing the results of a life on the wide and narrow road. Our obedience to His words is what determines whether we have built our house on the rock or the sand.

Pastor Frank shares his personal struggle with walking the wide path that leads to destruction and teaches why we should always choose the narrow way because it will always lead to life.

What does Jesus say about judging others?

In this section of the sermon on the mount Jesus is saying clearly if your treasure is on earth you are in darkness and your master is not Jesus. As a result, you will live a life consumed with anxiety and worry, trying to gather that treasure up.

This is the only place where Jesus names a rival that threatens discipleship and our relationship to him and he calls it money. It is possible for our possessions to own us as much as we own them. Jesus is saying it’s not the having of possession but the constant declaring that your possessions are yours that prevents you from being a disciple!

In this message as we look at what Jesus says about praying and fasting, Pastor Pete explains how any aspect of our life with God can be corrupted when we become more worried about what people think of us than what God thinks of us.
