Zoom Study
Join us as Brenda Weikel leads this 6 week book study group on Zoom. There will also be a video component to further enhance the study. AJ Levine is an exciting teacher who will give a different perspective and help you to experience the Sermon on the Mount in a deeper way.
You can purchase the book where ever you buy your books online. Please have the 1st chapter read for class. You can also come and just enjoy the video and discussion.
The Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5-7, contains some of Jesus most profound and most memorable teachings. What might these teachings have mean to his disciples, and to the others who first heard them? How do they enhance our reading of the rest of the Gospel of Matthew, and how do they speak across the centuries to listeners today? How, if we pay careful attention to his words, does Jesus provide us a road map to living as God would have us live?
In Sermon on the Mount: A Beginner’s Guide to the Kingdom of Heaven, Dr. Amy-Jill Levine introduces the major topics in the Sermon on the Mount, explains historical and theological contexts, and shows how the words of Jesus echo his Jewish tradition and speak forward to reach hearts and minds today.
