Speaker: Tom Sparling Series: The Sermon on the Mount Many people today are hungry for a change in society - for something better. Competing philosophies and strategies claim to have the answer, only to fall short in the light of the brokenness and hopelessness around us. In this powerful teaching, Jesus presents the one "counter-cultural" movement that will bring the society we all long for. He calls this "blessed" society "the Kingdom of God.""[The Sermon on the Mount] is the nearest thing to a manifesto that Jesus ever uttered, for it is his own description of what he wanted his followers to be and do. To my mind, no two words sum up its intention better, or indicate more clearly its challenge to the modern world, than the expression 'Christian counter-culture.'" - John Stott
