We live in a world that tells us at every turn that “you are the authority in your life”, and the world calls this freedom. But true life is found not in self-rule, but in surrender to the loving authority of Jesus and His word. True life isn’t found by grabbing the throne for ourselves, but by joyfully bowing to the One who rightfully sits on it.

The Beatitudes are more than just beautiful sayings. They are an open invitation from Jesus Himself to step out of the frantic, often disappointing, worldly pursuit of happiness through perfect circumstances. This is Jesus’ profound answer to our deepest question, ‘What do I need to be happy?’: You need the King and His Kingdom.

Many bible commentators believe that some significant time passes between Matthew 4:11 and Matthew 4:12 – maybe up to a year. All of this happened on the very edge. On the edge of Jewish geography, on the edge of Jewish history, and on the edge of Jewish religious understanding. Rob takes a look at how Jesus went the edge and His examples for us through it.
