Episode Title: The Blessed Life | Foundations of the Kingdom, Week 1
Scripture: Matthew 5:1-12
Description: What if everything our culture told us about success, happiness, and the good life was actually backwards?
In the first message of our brand new series Foundations of the Kingdom, we're diving into the Sermon on the Mount—the most famous teaching Jesus ever gave. And it starts with a word that changes everything: blessed.
In this episode, we explore:
- What the Greek word makarios really means (and why "happy" doesn't cut it)
- Why Jesus's vision of blessing scandalized his first-century audience—and should still scandalize us today
- How the Beatitudes aren't a self-improvement checklist but a portrait of Jesus himself
- What it means to be "poor in spirit" and why that's actually the best news you'll hear all week
The blessed life isn't about achieving more. It's about becoming like Jesus through apprenticeship to him. And the door is open to anyone willing to admit they need him.
