In this sermon, Rick Schaeffer unpacks the Beatitudes in Matthew 5:1–11 as Jesus’ portrait of the truly blessed life—the life every human being is longing for, whether they know it or not.

You’ll hear about:

• The storyline of blessing from Genesis to Jesus
• How our culture constantly preaches “different gospels” that promise life apart from Christ
• Why those false gospels always over-promise and under-deliver
• How the Beatitudes become our story when we actually follow Jesus
• A clear, simple framework for discipleship:

This episode will help you discern the voices you’re listening to, re-center your heart on Jesus as the only source of true life, and envision what it looks like for revival to touch a whole region—one transformed person at a time.
