“Are you a King then?” demanded the Governor of the prisoner standing before him. The prisoner undoubtedly confused him when he answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world.”

The interrogation of Jesus by Pontius Pilate on that first Good Friday 2000 years ago highlighted the sharp contrast between the kingdoms of the world and the Kingdom of God which Jesus came to establish.

Earthly kingdoms are all about power and control, but God’s Kingdom is about giving up control and living your life in submission to Him.

Jesus’ manifesto for His Kingdom is beautifully outlined in Matthew’s Gospel, chapters 5-7. Join us this Lent for a 40-day reflection on the Sermon on the Mount and discover for yourself what Kingdom Living is all about.
