Kingdom Decision Making
Jesus’ attractively different community seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness in all their decisions.
Blessed are the Peacemakers

Blessed are the Pure in Heart
Supremely happy are those who have an unmixed inner life because they will know God now and forever.
Blessed are the Merciful
In this sermon we explore what it means to be merciful, the actions that flow from a merciful heart, and the only motivation that can produce a disposition of mercy.
Blessed Are Those Who Hunger & Thirst
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the Meek
As we continue looking at the good life through Jesus’ eyes, we come to another attractively different trait of the good life: Meekness. It not a cowering weakness or a brash self-assertiveness, but something altogether different, rooted in a true reckoning that God is God, and I am not.
Blessed are Those Who Mourn
Blessed are Those Who Mourn
