We live in a time when the default response is often to either hide or lash out, flight or fight, burying our head or attacking with our words. But in contrast to the kingdoms of this world, Jesus offers a different way in His kingdom, one that goes the second mile, even when we were only asked to go one. Using sections of the Sermon on the Mount, we'll explore His teaching that offers a game plan for real change as we face the enemies of our heart.
