In Part 3 of this transformative series on the Beatitudes, Jamie Winship continues unpacking Jesus' blueprint for living as Kingdom people right now—on earth as it is in heaven. Building on getting empty (Part 1) and channeling compassionate sadness into meek, hunger-driven action (Part 2), Jamie explores meekness leading to mercy and purity of heart.
Discover how mercy acts as the "oil" or lubricant in God's Kingdom—constantly receiving God's endless mercy for our failures, mistakes, and wanderings, while extending that same mercy to others (even enemies, resisters, or those who hurt us). This keeps everything moving without friction, turning fear and wounds into opportunities for forgiveness and grace.

As mercy flows, your heart becomes pure—not moralistic perfection (no bad thoughts or emotions), but undivided and single-minded. Your true identity in God informs everything you do, corralling passions back to what's real. The evidence? You start to see God—His presence, movement, and work in your life and pursuits.

Jamie shares powerful insights: When distractions, discouragement, or plateaus hit (like in the creative process), jump back to emptying and refocus on Jesus. Stay the course with undivided imagination—seeing the unseen by faith (like biblical heroes, Einstein's breakthroughs, or Jamie's own multi-year pursuits). Pure in heart means you won't give up; you'll see God break through.

This progression—empty → mourn → meek/hungry → merciful → pure—unlocks innovation, resilience, and fearless living as you give your identity as a gift to the world.
If you're in a plateau, feeling divided, or longing to see God's hand more clearly, this teaching will inspire you to receive mercy, extend it, and stay pure in heart.

Dive into Part 2 of Jamie Winship's powerful series on the Beatitudes as a dynamic process for living fully in God's Kingdom—right here, right now.
Discover how Jesus invites us to move from emptiness and mourning into meekness: not weakness, but a Spirit-directed passion that's tamed, aimed, and unleashed toward what grieves your heart (conflict, injustice, brokenness in your family, neighborhood, church, or world). Jamie explains meekness as domesticating a wild stallion—channeling all your energy with guardrails from Christ so you can pursue change with everything you've got. The result? The meek inherit the earth!

Then comes the hunger and thirst for righteousness: a daily, relentless pursuit to see things made right, just like collecting fresh manna each morning. God doesn't remove your thirst—He redirects it from destructive things (fame, addiction, escape) to peace, reconciliation, and His will. You'll be filled day by day, but the hunger returns to keep you moving forward in creativity, innovation, and resilient Kingdom living.
This isn't about waiting for heaven—it's about becoming whole, motivated by love, and bringing real solutions to real problems. Perfect for anyone feeling complacent, misdirected, or ready to step into their true identity and purpose.

In this powerful Part 1 teaching, Jamie Winship dives deep into the Beatitudes as the preamble to living in God's Kingdom—right here, right now. Jesus begins with a stunning invitation: "Blessed are the poor in spirit" (or "the empty ones"), for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Discover why true innovation, creativity, and hearing God's voice start with emptying yourself of fear, guilt, shame, anxiety about money, reputation, control, and self-protection. Jamie explains how these blocks prevent us from receiving from God and giving the unique gift of our identity to the world.
Through contemplative prayer and the identity exchange process, learn to ask the Lord:

"What blocks me from receiving from You?"
Once empty, "What did You make me to be sad about?" (Because godly sadness is rooted in love and compassion—leading to passion, comfort, and action.)

Jamie shares personal insights as a "militant peacemaker" who unravels knots in stuck situations, and how mourning for injustice becomes the doorway to comfort and purpose. This is the foundation for becoming fully yourself—resilient, whole, and ready to live fearlessly in the Kingdom.
If you're feeling stuck, trapped by fear, or searching for your true calling, this message will challenge and inspire you to get empty, embrace godly mourning, and step into the life Jesus describes.

In this powerful teaching, Jamie Winship reveals the universal creative process that God has wired into every human being—whether you're a parent, scientist, artist, entrepreneur, or anyone longing to break free from repetitive patterns and fear.

Drawing from Scripture (including Habakkuk 2), Arthur Koestler's "The Act of Creation," and real-life breakthroughs like Newton's physics or the birth of Uber, Jamie walks through the essential steps:

Ask the right question (rooted in your God-given identity)
Search relentlessly for answers
Endure the long, frustrating plateau
Surrender and let go—releasing the problem to unlock intuition and divine insight
Experience the "eureka" breakthrough moment
Write it down and bring it into reality

Fear blocks creativity, but surrender opens the door to innovation, revelation, and co-creation with God. This isn't just theory—it's a biblical, practical path to living more creatively, fearlessly, and authentically in any area of life.
If you're stuck in cycles of conflict, burnout, or formulaic thinking, this message will show you how to tap into the intuitive, God-inspired part of your mind for fresh ideas and real transformation.

In this engaging conversation, Jamie and Donna Winship share insights from their recent travels and trainings in places like Istanbul and Amman, where they witnessed profound fear, conflict, and uncertainty amid global unrest. Drawing from Scripture and their decades of working in high-conflict areas, they reveal how fear is learned (not innate), rooted in false beliefs about scarcity, powerlessness, and separation from God and others. The antidote? Embracing life's inherent mystery—not as something to control or blame away, but as an opportunity to live in perfect love that casts out fear. Through true identity in Christ, reconciliation across divides (even bringing Israelis, Palestinians, Russians, Ukrainians, and more into one room), and small acts of other-focused love, we can persevere with joy, build resilient communities, and bless the world—even in catastrophe. Discover practical steps to unlearn fear, hear God's voice in old wounds, and choose love over violence in every decision.
