Beatitudes

176 | Let’s Chat about Spiritual Humility


The Beatitudes are fascinating. We pick up the first one, “Happy are those who are poor in spirit.” What’s going on here? If I am spiritually impoverished, is that a good thing? Yes. Surprising, right? Spiritual humility is important for RECEIVING from God. And what does trust have to do with it? It surprisingly came up as a related topic in our discussion. It’s a curious thing and a profound truth. Come join us! 

Resources:

The Eight Doors of the Kingdom: Meditations on the Beatitudes by Jacques Philippe. 2018 Scepter. 

The Sermon on the Mount and Human Flourishing: A Theological Commentary June  2017 by Jonathan T. Pennington
