Engaging 12-Week Study Helps Readers Better Understand and Apply God’s
Word:The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible
readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies
lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four
basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text
at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlight the gospel of grace
throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” show how any given
passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption,
culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identify how
historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout
Scripture.In The Sermon on the Mount, Drew Hunter examines the biblical
event that led to some of Jesus’s most well-known statements, including
the Beatitudes. Guiding readers through Matthew 5–7 passage by passage,
this guide demonstrates that the Sermon on the Mount is not a
disorganized collection of sayings, but a series of naturally
progressing sections.
