An Unexpected Road to Hope (Easter at Thrive 2026) | The Gospel of Matthew

The words “blessed are…” sound beautiful—until you realize who Jesus calls blessed. Join Pastor J.B. Lim for An Unexpected Road to Hope as he explores Matthew 5:1–12 and reveals why Jesus’ path to happiness challenges everything we assume. We bet you’ve never heard Jesus’ eight statements on happiness (the Beatitudes) taught quite like this before! This message isn’t just information—it’s a reorientation toward real hope rooted in Jesus. If you’ve been feeling weary or spiritually dry, lean in. What if the hope you need is hiding in the place you least expect?-Next Steps 💪• Are you NEW to Thrive? We've prepared a gift for you to thank you for spending your Sunday with us.
