Session 4: "You Have Heard that it was Said?" Part 1 - Matthew 5:21-30 (37:12) -Jesus turns His attention to the Law itself, beginning with murder and adultery and answering the question, What does the righteousness of a follower of Christ look like? You will be challenged to a deeper obedience to the Law, one in which both your actions and your motives are pure.And as spiritual light, we promote the growth of righteousness. As spiritual salt, we prevent moral decay. He does so with two simple illustrations drawn from everyday life: salt and light. Session 3: A People of Influence (35:24) -This session focuses on Matthew 5:13-20 where Jesus talks about the influence believers are to have on the world around them.You will look at them with fresh eyes, asking yourself why, of all the ways Jesus could have begun His inaugural address to His disciples, He begins with a list of blesseds.

Session 2: Who is Blessed? - Matthew 5:3-12 (32:23) -Jen dissects the eight short statements that form the opening to Jesus' longest recorded message - the Beatitudes.

Most of us have only encountered the Sermon on the Mount in fragments - instead of as one cohesive, well-ordered message, intended to challenge us to think differently about what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
