CBC Women's Ministry Summer 2021 Study

The Beatitudes get to the essence of who we are to be as imitators of Christ and the gracious benefits that come when we live that way. We can have all the right actions in the world, but if our motives are not right, we’ve missed the kingdom Jesus is describing. The Beatitudes show us how beautiful the blessings are that come from genuine attitude and heart transformation. For 8 weeks, we will learn what God’s kingdom looks like here on earth and learn how to progressively embody that picture as we live like, and for, Christ in our daily life. This study has 8 weekly podcasts and an accompanying study guide with discussion questions to help dive deeper in Scripture and facilitate spiritual growth.

Is there a place where you can find a glimpse of God's glory? His goodness?

Can you identify something the Holy Spirit is leading you to do in response to God's word?

Is there something you'd like to share? Maybe write down the name of someone who might benefit from hearing what you've experienced through God's word.
