Sermon on the Mount
Sermon on the Mount
“After hearing Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, Chris and Joy can’t wait to put what they’ve heard into practice. Comic chaos results from their over-eager and misguided attempts to put the Beatitudes into action. SUPERBOOK shows up to take them back to hear the Sermon again–and to walk beside the disciples as even they struggle to understand and live according to Jesus’ teaching. Chris and Joy witness Jesus’ encounter with a Roman Centurion and learn that the Kingdom of God is open to everyone who accepts the Lord and tries to follow the narrow path of Christ’s footsteps. Back home, Chris displays his new understanding at a Bible study group that the first step in leading a Christian life is admitting you can’t do it without God’s help. ”
