Sermons

Covenantal Faithfulness (Matthew 5:31–32)
Matthew 5:31–32 gives us Jesus’ teaching on divorce, which reminds us that the citizens of the kingdom are people of the covenant.

Scripture References: Matthew 5:31-32
From Series: "Human Flourishing: A Study of the Sermon on the Mount"
A short, devotional study of the Sermon on the Mount, which highlight human flourishing.
