The Beatitudes (Luke 6:20-26) - Nick Harris

Preached on

April 28, 2026

Following Jesus isn’t a path to an easier life; it’s a total rewrite of the world's values. Luke recounts Jesus' Beatitudes in the "Sermon on the Plain". Jesus looks His followers in the eye and redefines "blessing" through poverty, hunger, and hatred. Nick spoke to our Sidcup morning meeting about what it means to follow Jesus' radical teaching.

Prayer before Everything - Frank Clark

Before the world was changed, Jesus withdrew. We often focus on the "doing" of Christian life and even Jesus' own ministry. In the next part of our Luke series, Frank helps us see how before Jesus chose the twelve and did remarkable miracles, He spent the entire night in prayer. If the Son of God didn't make a move without seeking the Father first, why do we often treat prayer as a last resort?'
