Sermon series: Sermon on the Mount Title: The Anatomy of Anger Text: Matthew 5:21-26   Description: Destructive actions on the surface of our lives are actually symptoms of untreated anger and contempt bubbling up from within our hearts.

SERIES: Sermon on the Mount TITLE: What does it mean to be in God's family? SCRIPTURE: 5:13–20 PREACHING: Brandon Goad, Lead Pastor In Matthew 5:13–20, Jesus begins the Sermon on the Mount by teaching his followers what it means to live as members of God’s family.

And here’s the counterintuitive truth: when we all focus on building up Christ’s body, we will be built up personally. Because we are part of the body that is being built up. That’s what Paul has been saying all along. If we focus on building up ourselves, only we get the benefit. But if we focus on building up the body, everyone, including us, benefits.
