The Only Voice That Matters (1 of 32)
Series: Sermon on the Mount
Robert Dawson
Matthew 4:23-5:2
Throughout the years there have been some great and notable sermons preached like R.G. Lee’s ‘Payday Someday’ and Jonathan Edward’s famous sermon ‘Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.’ Today we are going to begin looking at the Greatest Sermon ever preached.
