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.

By Keeping Sex in Marriage

In this uncompromising message, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts today’s moral collapse with Jesus’ teaching from Matthew 5:27–30: “You shall not commit adultery.” Exposing the idolatry of sexual sin—even within the Church—he declares that God’s design for sex is a holy gift reserved for marriage between one man and one woman. Lust begins in the heart and must be mortified, not managed. With bold clarity, Dr. Youssef warns that unchecked temptation leads to destruction, but repentance brings restoration. Only the power of the Holy Spirit can enable believers to pursue purity, deny self, and live under Christ’s righteousness. God’s grace is sufficient to cleanse every sinner who turns to Him in faith and repentance.
