     | 5,381 views

    Rather than giving a list of ideals to strive for, Jesus was showing the people how widely available God’s kingdom was – even for ordinary, poor, ignorant, imperfect, despised people. The beatitudes describe their struggle & grace to thrive in adversity.

Here is what I mean by that. Last week as I shared them, I introduced the first one (poor in spirit) as a requirement for ...read more
