In this vital message from the Sermon on the Mount, Assistant Pastor Zane Garza challenges us to embrace the standard of God's love. Examining Matthew 5:43-48, we learn that God's standard of perfection is complete love, which demands that we love everyone—even our enemies—without condition or partiality. Through powerful expositional preaching, this sermon exposes the danger of traditional teachings that compromise God's Word and calls every Christian to repent of selfish, human love, and instead, to love like God.

John Chiafos preaches from Psalm 119:113-120, exploring the theme of single-minded commitment to God and His Word. He contrasts the psalmist's love for God's law with his hatred for vain, or "double-minded," thoughts, encouraging believers to seek clarity in a confusing world. He shares personal stories and scriptural truths to demonstrate how God's Word is a source of security, guidance, and strength when faced with life's struggles. He then concludes with a sobering call to fear God alone and to live a single-minded testimony that points others to the hope found in Jesus Christ.

In the fifth installment of the "What God Values" series, Zane Garza preaches from Matthew 5:38-42, challenging the modern-day idea of retaliation. He explains how Jesus redefines the Old Testament law of "an eye for an eye," shifting the focus from civil justice to personal conduct. This sermon teaches that Christians are called to a higher standard, one that moves beyond a desire for revenge and instead embraces a spirit of giving and selfless love. Learn how to respond to personal slights and offenses not with a taker's mindset, but with the compassionate, giving attitude that reflects the heart of Christ.

In the fourth part of the "What God Values" series, Zane Garza preaches from Matthew 5:33-37, challenging listeners to reconsider what it means to keep their word.
