The beatitudes reveal to us eight qualities that bring God's blessing: meekness and mercy, poorness in spirit and purity of heart, mourning and hunger, peacemaking and persecution. Jesus highlighted these to offer both encouragement and instruction on living distinctly as his followers in a world with values much different from God's. Eight studies are included in this study, one for each of the beatitudes. Questions are in an inductive format with commentary notes, personal application, prayer helps and leader guidelines. After you have worked throughthe questions and notes in the guide, you may want to read the accompanying commentary by John Stott in the Bible Speaks Today series (WW2965).
