Join us as we consider “works” and their place in the Christian life. We are encouraged with the reality that they are an “end” and not a means. We are NOT called to trust in our grip on Christ, but rather to trust in His grip on us.

As Jesus begins the next section of the Sermon on the Mount we meet instructions that appear to stand in tension with something he said earlier. Are our good works supposed to be observed by others, or not? As we work through Jesus’ words we see him answering three “how” questions: how do we resolve apparent contradictions, how do we understand hypocrisy, and how do we walk in obedience? Join us as we make this first pass through Matthew 6!
