I really appreciated this deep dive into the sermon on the mount. I have often been a bit confused or put off by all the scriptures about the narrow way, path or gate - I appreciate how the author frames this as a way of life that is bigger on the inside than it appears on the outside. Not something designed to keep people out but something counter cultural instead.
