In episode 8 of The Afterword, Lexie and Jace discuss Jesus' teaching on judgment. How are we called to align ourselves with the values of the kingdom when it comes to our relationships with our neighbors? All this and more in The Aferword!

In this episode, Lexie, Ian, and Jace discuss Matthew 6v19-34. What does it mean to lay up "treasures in heaven?" and that "you cannot serve God and Money"? How does Jesus call us to trust in the Character of God instead of worrying? All this and more in this episode of The Afterword! 

In this Episode, Lexie, Ian, and Jace move into Matthew 6, talking about Jesus' use of “hyprocisy” and “reward.” What does hypocrisy look like in our modern time and how do we seek the greater reward to come? 

In this Episode, Lexie, Ian, and Jace continue their discussion on the “sayings” of Jesus but stop down on a discussion of righteousness and Jesus heart behind the sayings.

In this Episode, Lexie, Ian, and Jace discuss the first two of the “Sayings” of Jesus. How does Jesus get to the “heart” of the law? How does he push us to think deeply about the motives of our heart? All this and more as they unpack Matthew 5v21-30!

In this Episode, Lexie, Ian, and Jace discuss the opening section of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5v2-12, which is historically known as the Beatitudes. Through this conversation, they unpack what Jesus means by “Blessed” and talk about how the beatitudes should permeate through all of life.

Welcome to The Afterword! The Afterword exists to help listeners reflect on the week's teaching and the insights shared in our Bible study gatherings. Over the next nine weeks, we will focus on the Sermon on the Mount, walking alongside our men's and women's Bible studies. In this episode, Ian, Lexie, and Jace share what excites them most about this study and highlight some essential ideas for approaching Jesus' words for both understanding and practical application.
