Matthew: The Beatitudes Part 2
Aloha and welcome to The Mission North Shore's podcast! What does it mean to truly hunger and thirst for something? We all know that feeling of physical hunger, that primal, consuming drive that takes over our thoughts and demands to be satisfied. In this teaching drawn from Matthew 5:6, we explore what it looks like when that same intensity is directed toward righteousness and the things of God. The Sermon on the Mount was never meant to be comfortable. Jesus was deliberately flipping the values of a fallen world right side up, and this Beatitude is no exception. We are challenged to ask ourselves an honest question: do we pursue God with the same urgency and passion that we pursue food and water every single day?
