Jesus was a powerful teacher, and one of his most well-known teachings is in the book of Matthew. It’s often called The Sermon on the Mount. Jesus’ words in these chapters (Matthew 5-7) describe the way of God—his kingdom—and what it looks like to live within it. This week, we’ll spend time taking in the words of Jesus’ teaching. The first people who heard it were hungry to hear his words.
While we know that Jesus is one of the most famous and remarkable people to have ever lived, the people living in Galilee in the 1st century were just starting to realize how unique and intriguing he was.
Read Matthew 4:23-25 and Matthew 5:1-2.
