What do you value? What do you love? Who do you serve? Who do you trust?
In Matthew 6, Jesus is introducing a new kingdom and new way of living. It’s counter-intuitive to most everything our culture stands for. Throughout the entire sermon, Jesus is after one thing: the heart. This week, we dive deeper into verses 19-34 where we find that what we value has a lot of power over us.

Judge Not...?

The phrase “Do not judge” is likely one of the most misunderstood yet frequently used phrases in the entirety of Scripture. The fact is, we are judging things all the time. We check reviews on restaurants to judge whether or not we’ll eat there. We visit Rotten Tomatoes to see what the critics are saying about a movie we might want to watch. Even when it comes to people, we make judgements based on first-impressions on whether or not we’d like to pursue connecting with a person a second time. So what does Jesus mean when he says, “Do not judge?” This week, we look at three directives on how we should approach judgement.
