So Blessed: EP1, Jesus' Invitation to Experience the Good Life

Send us a Message“Blessed” is one of those words we all use, but Jesus refuses to let us keep shallow definitions. We at Brave Girls Gather are inviting you into the start of a new series through Matthew 5, the opening chapter of the Sermon on the Mount. If you’ve ever felt like faith is mostly about trying harder, chasing the next win, or looking for a sign that God is with you, Jesus offers a better foundation and it may flip your assumptions upside down.Be the Brave Ones podcast is the official podcast of Brave Girls gather. Our heartbeat: gather, grow, and go. Gather: because you weren't made to walk alone. Grow: allow Scripture to shape you, not just inform you. Go: take the brave step into discipleship, where transformation leads to multiplication. In this first episode of the So Blessed series, we zoom out for context that makes Matthew 5 come more alive. In Matthew 4, Jesus launches his ministry with “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand,” and Luke 17 reminds us the kingdom doesn’t arrive in ways we can easily observe. That’s why we ask for spiritual eyes, and why Jesus teaches us how to build a “spiritual home” that stands firm when life gets shaky. We close with a simple declaration and a challenge to reach out and invite a sister to go through this study with you.Subscribe for the rest of the series, share this with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review so more girls and women can find it.
