109 What Makes for Human Flourishing? (on the Sermon on the Mount, with Jonathan Pennington)

What is Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount really about? Is it an out-of-reach spirituality for the really devoted? Is it a practical guide for political action? A reworking of the Old Testament Law? Or an existential treatise on the intentions that guide our actions?

What if it outlines the way toward human flourishing?
