Description

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus ends by speaking the Golden Rule: treat others the way you would want to be treated. If we are going to reach our city, our families and our workplaces with God’s love in 2024, we have to receive and act upon the love that has first been given to us. This Sunday, pastor Jon Laurenzo explores the importance of the golden rule in the life of a believer today.
