About this episode

This episode explores developing the mind of Christ and true righteousness as taught by Jesus in Matthew 5:20–48.

This week in our Kingdom Values series, we explore what it means to develop the mind of Christ instead of following the patterns of the world. In Matthew 5:20–48, Jesus teaches that true righteousness isn’t just about outward behavior, but a transformed heart that reflects God’s love, mercy, purity, and truth. From anger and forgiveness to integrity and loving our enemies, Jesus calls His followers to a deeper way of thinking and living. As we grow in the mind of Christ, we begin to reflect the character of God in every area of our lives.
