The sermon on the mount is probably one of the best known and most recognisable teachings of Jesus. It has captured the hearts and imagination of believers over many centuries. It has inspired writings and has shaped western culture. Its influence and significance can not be over stated.As “door keeper” to this great body of teaching we find, what is commonly know as “The Beatitudes”. Sinclair Furgeson says that “The sermon on the mount does not begin with what we are to do as Christians. In a sense it doesn't even begin with telling us what we are to be as Christians. It begins by telling us the blessedness of what we are as Christians.” In the Christian life being is the foundation for doing. Not the other way around. The beatitudes therefore sets the tone, orientates the heart and primes the mind for the profound truths to follow. The Beatitudes have the following unique features:•⁠ ⁠They reflect the upside down nature of the values of the kingdom of Heaven•⁠ ⁠The are completely counter cultural. The beatitudes commend values and conditions that the world despises. Even during the time of Jesus.•⁠ ⁠They assume hostility and persecution. Because of its contrary values they bring us into a world that is hostile. •⁠ ⁠They describe the blessed, happy, favoured and fortunate condition that all who follow Jesus find themselves in.•⁠ ⁠They therefore do not refer to 8 different kinds of people but rather reflect on the state of all believers.

The Psalms of Ascent (Psalms 120-134) were sung by pilgrims travelling to Jerusalem, perched atop a high hill. These "Pilgrim Psalms" speak to the journey of faith, offering words for prayer and worship. They remind us of who we are and where we are headed—songs for the road for those walking the way of Christ.

The Gospel is the good news that the one and only God, who is holy, made us in His image to know Him. But we sinned and cut ourselves off from Him. In His great love, God became a man in Jesus, lived a perfect life and died on the cross, thus fulfilling the law himself and taking on himself the punishment for the sins of all those who would ever believe in Him. He rose again from the dead, showing that God accepted Christ's sacrifice and that God's wrath against us had been exhausted. He now calls us to repent of our sins and to trust in Christ alone for forgiveness. If we repent of our sins and trust in Christ, we are born again into a new life, progressively transformed into the image of Christ and have eternal life with God. Now that is Good News!

D4J originated from gatherings of pastors across different denominations in Durbanville, who fostered relationships over several years. Each May, we conduct a month-long campaign aimed at igniting Durbanville with the message of Jesus, glorifying Him in our community. Throughout the campaign, various churches host events while preaching on the same topic each Sunday. As a church we're excited to be part of this campaign.
