In this bold, verse-by-verse study of the Sermon on the Mount, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals that true happiness is not found in earthly gain—but in total surrender to Jesus Christ. Drawing from Matthew chapters 5–7, this 8-part series exposes the lies of cultural religion and calls believers to embrace the radical righteousness of the Kingdom. Dr. Youssef teaches how to be salt and light in a decaying world, how to control anger, reject lust, love purity, and judge rightly. These are not optional suggestions—they are the marks of those who truly belong to Christ. With clarity and conviction, Dr. Youssef urges us to live under the authority of God’s Word, forsake self-righteousness, and pursue the blessed life found only in full obedience to the King.

In this sobering message, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes the modern crisis of self-centeredness and its devastating effect on marriage. Preaching from Matthew 5:31–32, he confronts the lies of our culture and calls believers back to God’s original design for marriage—a covenant between one man and one woman, bound by commitment and marked by grace. Divorce, once rare, is now normalized—even in the Church—because of hearts hardened by pride and selfishness. But Jesus demands more. He calls His followers to reject narcissism, embrace repentance, and pursue sacrificial love through the power of the Holy Spirit. Only when Christ is lifted high can a marriage reflect His glory and endure the storms of life.
