What does it mean when you say you are blessed or acknowledge when others are blessed? Perhaps being "blessed" isn't what you think it is? When we unmask the true biblical meaning of being blessed, far detached from the material wealth and success that society often associates with blessings, we discover that being "blessed" isn't all it's cracked up to be. In this episode, we journey through a revision of the common narrative of blessings and present a refreshing perspective on what it truly means to be blessed according to the Bible. Father Don will uncover the meaning of Jesus' blessing the Beatitudes of Matthew chapter 5. He explores how real blessings are felt through the experience of God's indwelling spirit, rather than being dependent on outward conditions and circumstances. Father Don will also dive into Hebrews 11, illuminating how faith shapes beliefs through the experiences of Old Testament saints. We encourage you to deeply consider your own faith journey - is it in sync with Christ's teachings?
