~ ADULT SMALL GROUPS ~
- “BLESSED ARE…”: Cultivating Christ-like Character
1) Study: 6:00-6:15 pm in the Multipurpose Room
“Blessed Are…” will focus our faith on continuing to cultivate Christlike character as we study The Beatitudes. What does the world say? What does The Word say? Matthew 5:3-12 reveals to us eight qualities that bring God’s blessing to believers. Jesus highlights meekness and mercy, poorness in spirit and purity of heart, mourning and hunger, peacemaking and persecution. Through prayer and practical application, we can walk in each of them. As we engage these eight statements we embark on the journey of faith as Jesus says, “Blessed Are…”
