Ask Seek Knock – Josias Hansen
When Jesus teaches that we are to ask, seek, and knock, he is not talking about getting material possessions from God. He’s talking about the kingdom. If we want God’s kingdom, God is ready to give it. He won’t trick us, nor force feed it to us, but his desire is that we receive it, find it and enter it.

Loving Our Enemies – Greg Boyd
Greg Boyd shares that the perfect picture of God’s love is demonstrated in Jesus’ self-sacrificial act of love on the cross for his enemies. Thus, when Jesus teaches in the Sermon on the Mount to love our enemies, he actually means it. Instead of retaliating against our enemies, followers of Jesus are to see our enemies as having unsurpassable worth, and to love them in the same way Jesus demonstrates his love for us.

Moving from Law to Love – Josias Hansen
