About this episode

The episode discusses the beginning of Jesus' sermon and the characteristics of those who can see the Kingdom of God, focusing on the beatitudes.

Today we are going to begin at the beginning. Because Jesus begins his sermon in a memorable way. He begins by describing what a disciple of the Kingdom looks like, kind of a list of the kind of people who can see the Kingdom most clearly. Jesus presents a list of different people who are blessed, happy, fortunate, because they can see the kingdom most clearly. That list of blessed people has come to be known as the beatitudes.
