This Beatitude is probably the one that makes the least sense to us on the surface, but it is one that we must understand because it is something that we will all face when we live our lives at the level that God is calling us to live them!
As we continue in our Counter Cultural series, we’ll take a step out of the Beatitudes to examine a huge challenge given later in the sermon on the mount. Jesus challenges each of us as believers to make a choice and live by it. The question you must ask ourselves is “Who do you serve?” Join us as we open Matthew 6:19-24 and see the benefits of serving the one true God.

Guilt is a giant that so many people struggle with today and the reality is that many people can’t fully live in their “todays” because they are too weighed down by the guilt from their “yesterdays”.
