Building On The Rock

This week we are going to look at the teachings that close out Matthew’s “Sermon on the Mount” and Luke’s “Sermon on the Plain.”  We won’t reconcile whether Jesus said it on the mount or the plain.  But we will seek to understand why these were the capstone teachings of his larger message. These are some of the strongest warnings Jesus ever gives.  Some people won’t enter the Kingdom!  Some people will suffer life-encompassing disaster!  Read Matthew 7:21-27. Come ready to explore how Jesus intends for us to avoid these frightening things.   SPOILER ALERT:  Jesus’ plan for avoiding catastrophe is the same as his plan for an abundant life.

See you Sunday,
