In this sermon, we discuss the Beatitudes from Matthew 5, focusing on four key threats to happiness: self-reliance, compromise, pride, and apathy. He explains how Jesus was teaching his disciples (who were spiritual infants at the time) about the fundamentals of living in God's kingdom. The sermon emphasizes that these Beatitudes are essentially a recipe for happiness, but not just temporary happiness - rather a lasting joy that comes from knowing God.
