This Week's Sermon

Date of Sermon:

Feb 1, 2026

9AM (Modern) & 11AM (Traditional)

Jesus’ Sermons are Deep and Wide

Matthew 5:1-12

Rev. Barrett Owen

ONLINE ONLY - IN PERSON SERVICES CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER:
All throughout the gospels, Jesus teaches and preaches. His most famous is the Sermon on the Mount. For three chapters he waxes poetic on the depth and breadth of faith, loving neighbors, being a good person, and living for the Kingdom of God. Jesus’ preaching is one that is both deep and wide.
