Worship
“He began to teach . . .” is the simple, understated line with which Matthew opens one of the most remarkable sections in the entire Bible: The Sermon on the Mount. From the lyric beauty of the Beatitudes to stunning teachings on prayer and kingdom living, Matthew 5-7 contain the cherished words of Jesus that have shaped Christian practice and reflection across the sweep of church history. At our Symposium 2013 worship services we will reflect on these chapters through music, art, and preaching, celebrating the goodness and grace of God as it emerges from these ancient, yet always fresh, verses from the holy Gospel of Jesus Christ the Lord.
