This Sermon on the Mount podcast series is a unique Bible study deep dive into the words and teachings of Jesus found in Matthew chapters 5-7.
For too many Christian believers, the words of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount found in Matthew 5-7 are understood as simply pithy statements full of wisdom but often disconnected from our real life. That is so far from the original design and intent of these passages. In this one-of-a-kind Sermon on the Mount podcast series, JB Shreve takes a verse-by-verse approach to Jesus’ teaching in these chapters. Spread out over 29 podcast episodes, JB Shreve explains how the Sermon on the Mount was not simply an inspirational teaching. It was designed to be the manifesto of the Kingdom of God that Jesus ushered into the earth as He birthed the church. These words are the standards and objectives for citizens living in the Kingdom of God.
Below, you will find links to all 29 episodes of this Sermon on the Mount podcast series. Each group of episodes is divided into sections that focus on a particular theme to help you better understand Jesus’ message.
