The Sermon on the Mount is a perennial favourite among Christians due to the depth of its ethical and theological teaching. Many of Jesus’ sayings in the Sermon have become core teachings that shape the Church, and the Sermon’s moral philosophy has influenced the course of human society.

In this series of 24 devotions that work through the whole of the text, listeners are challenged to come to Jesus and listen to His teachings in a prayerful manner, while also applying the lessons therein to their everyday life. The devotions are offered by twelve speakers from a diverse range of backgrounds and vocations but united in their conviction in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and its significance for life today.
