“Sermon on the Mount” Memorization Guide
What if we as a church were so shaped by the Sermon on the Mount that it radically changed our lives? This, no doubt, must be the work of the Holy Spirit within us. We don’t have this power in and of ourselves; it is only by God’s power and grace alone to enable us to live out what we see here. But one of the ways that we can begin to see this transformation in our lives is as we allow Jesus’ words in Matthew 5-7 to saturate our hearts and minds in such a way that we are shaped by them.
This Sunday, I will challenge us as a church, over the next several months, to begin memorizing together the Sermon on the Mount. I’ll say more about this during this week’s sermon, but attached below is a document that you will receive next week with a “Memorization Guide” for us to collectively begin doing this together as a church. I wanted to get this document into your hands just as soon as possible so that you can begin memorizing right away, although the challenge will actually begin next Sunday, on July 23rd. This document will take you “week-by-week” up through the end of this year.
I hope that you will take up this challenge yourself, in your own homes, with your families, and in your small groups. I really do believe it will have the potential to be life-changing for us all.
Will you embark on this challenge with us?
