Sermon on the Mount - An Upside-Down Kingdom - Jason Paredes

We are hardwired to think that blessing comes from self advancement. The more power, money, and success we can make for ourselves, the more satisfied we will be. Blessing comes from building our own kingdom. Jesus calls us to “change our minds” about what blessing is and where it comes from. The greatest satisfaction and blessing in life comes from turning away from self advancement and building your kingdom, so you can live for the advancement of of his kingdom. A kingdom that he has given us a role in advancing. True satisfaction and blessing comes from Jesus as King.
