Blessed #1: intro to Beatitudes (Greg Meyer, 1/10/10)
A couple 1000 years ago Jesus started his ministry with a controversial speech, begun with perhaps the most mysterious (aka confusing) couple of sentences he ever spoke. These are wrestling words; deep and difficult to interpret, understand or apply. We're going to start our New Year diving into these sayings - usually called 'the beatitudes' - looking for the altered view of life and our world that Jesus is proposing. We will be all working together on this, experimenting with starting a conversation around Jesus' sayings each Sunday that we will all continue throughout the week on our own, and in GroupLife. Be part of the experiment, stretch your faith. Read Matthew chapters 5, 6 & 7 and get into a group if you aren't yet.
