For this sermon we are on the fourth beatitude, "blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness."

We'll learn about what it looks like to pursue a life of righteousness that pleases God.

When we place our trust in Jesus, God credits us with Christ's righteousness. Because of Jesus, we stand fully righteous before God.

God also put his righteousness in us. He gave us a new heart, fashioned after his own righteous heart. If that wasn't enough, we also have God's Holy Spirit in us to enlighten and empower us to become more righteous like Jesus.

This message, we’ll explore what it means to hunger and thirst for righteousness, not only personally, but publicly as well.

Read the Beatitudes in Matthew 5:1-12
