Discover What It Really Means to Be Blessed
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus identified attitudes that bring God's favor: weeping over sin, demonstrating meekness, showing mercy, nurturing peace, and more. Some of these phrases have become so familiar that we've lost sight of their meaning.

In this powerful study, you will gain a fresh understanding of what it looks like to align your life with God's priorities. Here you will discover anew why the word blessed mean walking the fulness and satisfaction of God, no matter your circumstances. As you look closely at the meaning behind each of the Beatitudes, you will see how these truths can shape your choices every day--and bring you closer to the heart of God.


40 Minutes a Week Could Change Your Life!
The 40-Minute Bible Studies series from the teaching team at Precept Ministries International tackles the topics that matter to you. These inductive study guides, designed to be completed in just six 40-minute lessons with no homework required, help you discover for yourself what God says and how it applies to your life today. With the leader’s notes and Bible passages included right in the book, each self-contained study is a powerful resource for personal growth and small-group discussion.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.

Certain events and moments in time have changed the course of history. A few, a precious few, have even changed the course of eternity. Take for example the birth, the death, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. His life changed not only history but even eternity.
 
Jesus’ delivery of the Sermon on the Mount is one of those pivotal events. In what is now undoubtedly the most famous sermon in the world Jesus took righteousness to a whole new level, all in one fell swoop. He defined religion in a way that was then, and is still
today, countercultural, radical, and even revolutionary.
 
The sermon itself can be preached word-for-word in eighteen minutes, but you could spend a lifetime studying it and never completely search out its depths. The introduction alone—the subject of numerous books, essays, and discussions—is so powerful, so inspiring that it carries its own name exclusive of the Sermon on the Mount: The Beatitudes. In these few verses Jesus introduces the core belief system that
changed the world.
 
As you study what it means to be blessed of God and how those blessings are manifest in our lives, you will see that this is the practical side of living in a real world. As we live out the blessings, we become a light shining in the darkness, a city set on a hill that cannot be hidden. We become ambassadors for the Son of God.
 
We then have the opportunity to impact world— all because we studied the introduction to a two thousand-year-old sermon.

5.0 out of 5 stars I appreciate these studies!
Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2021

I've done several of these studies with my online group. I found the group through the Precept website during the lockdown and adore the people I've met from across the country. The studies are fantastic and focus on examining scripture verses and interpreting it by comparing to other scripture verses. The layout of the study is also good if you're unable to complete it beforehand. The "no homework" aspect helps me breathe easier as a special needs homeschool mom. I can still participate and get a lot out of the study just by listening as our group goes through it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but a little simplistic
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2011
Verified Purchase
This study has been great for our small group since we wanted to dig deeper into scripture without requiring homework. But sometimes the questions are a little simplistic, and make me wonder if I'm missing some deeper meaning. The Wrap It Up section at the end of each lesson is very helpful, and I wish she would include more of those guiding insights throughout the study. But all in all, the practice of really looking at each work of the verses and what they mean has been a good one, and I wouldn't have done it quite like that without this book.
