Brothers and Sisters,
This coming Sunday, we will kick off our next sermon series looking at Jesus’s teachings in Matthew 5-7. That’s right, we’re going to be spending our Sunday mornings diving into the greatest sermon ever preached— The Sermon On The Mount. We as pastors are very much looking forward to witness God continue to build and strengthen our church through His Word over the next few months
As we prepare for this sermon series, we wanted to provide the church with resources to study the text in between Sundays. Below is a list of resources we’d recommend you read alongside studying the the Scriptures.
