Jesus announces the flourishing of those who are pure. But to get there we don't need to time travel back to an age of innocence - we need a renovation of the heart!

Mercy doesn't really add up....it multiplies-it's the Holy Math.

There are those who flourish not in the results of their efforts, but in their passion for it.  And the world is better for it.

Meekness has gotten a bad rap in contemporary life (probably because it didn't stand up for itself!) Seeing how Jesus exemplified meekness can give us a fresh, new perspective on the flourishing life of the kingdom.

Flourishing are those who mourn, because they will be comforted.

Flourishing are the poor in spirit because the universe of God is theirs.

The word 'Christian' is not a title for a better life, it is a description of how to live a better life.
