In the second part of the Mere Fidelity discussion of the Beatitudes, Matt, Alastair, and Derek tackle the first bombshell that Jesus drops: Blessed are the poor in spirit. There's a strong urge in most of us to spiritualize the "poor in spirit" part of that phrase. But it seems as if Jesus is talking about people who are literally lacking in money. How do we reconcile that with our Christian faith and trust in God? Listen. Full show notes at www.mereorthodoxy.com/categories/mere-fidelity.
