This is the last message of our sermon series called “Flipped”. In it we have looked at Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. That message turned the world upside down! As we draw to a close, Jesus challenges us to make a choice. Do we want to follow the crowd along the wide and easy road towards destruction? Or, are we willing to do the heavy lifting in our own spiritual lives to stay on the narrow path? This is the way that leads to life. It is not the easy path, but it is the path that brings the greatest joy. Join us as we decide which path to take.

Flipped – Selected
Jesus went up on a mount to give us a new law. In the beginning of his message he gave us what many now call the ‘Beatitudes’. These were an invitation to join the new kingdom Jesus was founding. But the invitation wasn’t given to the rich and the powerful. It was not given to the people that mankind would have thought the kingdom would need. The invitation was given to those who recognized their own need for the kingdom.
