Show Notes

Why does Jesus begin the Sermon on the Mount with the Beatitudes? Are the beatitudes works we should try to perform, or something different? How do the blessings that Jesus offers in the Beatitudes differ from the blessings of the world?

This episode continues our series on the Sermon on the Mount with an introduction to the Beatitudes.
