Today Jon looks at two parts of the sermon on the mount. Many of us find reading the Bible hard.

Jon looks at how we are to deal with anger as followers of Jesus.
Jon and Stephen talk about the beatitudes. One of the most famous passages in scripture. But what does it mean for us to receive a blessing from God? How do we live a life of blessing? Well, it's not what you might expect.
The disciples are in for a surprise when Jesus identifies who of us are “blessed". Colin explains who it is that Jesus wants sends out to be Salt and Light in our world.
Dig Deeper is back as we begin our journey through the most famous sermon ever given. Laws have made, countries founded, societies changed all because of these teachings of Jesus.

Join Jon March and Dr. Stephen Backhouse as they kick of our series on this section of Matthew's Gospel.As we look to rebuild our lives, what does it really look like to build our lives on the rock of Jesus' teachings? How do we work together to see that as a reality in our own lives and the lives of those around us?
Natasha considers the difference between rock and sand faith to demonstrate what while both Christian may appear to be doing the same kind of activities, and share a love for Jesus, there trust or reliance in factors other than Christ, may set them up for a serious crisis of faith.

Colin discusses God's provision in Ruth 4.
Natasha opens up Ruth 3 to explore the place and process of transformation, to help us think about the person and posture of redemption.
God is our provider, he will always provide. However, just like Ruth and Naomi did sometimes we have to take a step of faith. God provided for them because they had the vision to step out in faith. Ruth 2.
Ruth is a book that would have been an uncomfortable for it's original Israelite hearers. It's also a book about moving into a new space and God meeting us in unexpected circumstances. So what can we learn from Ruth today? Ruth 1.
Jesus generation was on the brink of world shattering events, for them this meant the destruction of the Jerusalem temple. We are also on the brink of events that will leave our world irreparably damaged. So what are Jesus prophetic words saying to us today? Mark 13.
Jesus has overturned the moneychangers’ tables in the Temple. The Sadducees are furious and want to publicly dismiss him. But that doesn’t quite go to plan… and along the way we discover something remarkable about marriage and eternity. Mark 12:18-27
