The fourth of a series on the Sermon on the Mount. In this episode we focus on Matthew 5:27-32 and Jesus's teachings on lust and adultery. In this passage we see that the heart of Jesus's message was a concern about broken relationships, that sin is always a communal event, and that seemingly harsh teachings like this one were about protecting our own souls as well as the vulnerable among us.
