Beautiful Attitudes | Strength Under God's Control - Season 4, Episode 113

In a world that values power and self-assertion, why does Jesus call his followers to be meek? Society often mistakes meekness for weakness, a quality to be avoided rather than cultivated. Pastor Andrew examines Matthew 5:5 to correct this misconception, arguing that biblical meekness is not an absence of strength, but rather “strength under God’s control.” Drawing from the lives of Moses and Jesus, he demonstrates that true meekness is a powerful, God-surrendered posture that produces rest, restores relationships, and steadies leadership. Listeners are challenged to respond spiritually rather than react emotionally, placing their power under God’s authority to find rest and inherit what He promises.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
