Cross Connection
"The Sermon On The Mount: The Beatitudes" - Episode 5
Bible scholars know them as the "Be-attitudes," yet no words to live by could be more strange to real world people. Oleg Kostyuk makes sense of the topsy-turvy rules of living, left by a God whose rules are pure love.
You can almost hear the disciples silence themselves as they all sit, shoulder to shoulder in front of Jesus. Looking out over the crowd that had gathered, Jesus utters some of the most appreciated, yet confusing words that anyone has been told to live by. In a world where prestige and success is celebrated, Jesus explains that those that mourn and those who are poor in spirit are the ones that are blessed. We are told that the pure in heart are blessed as well as those that are insulted. In this episode of Cross Connection, we dissect the words of Christ from His "Sermon on the Mount." Oleg Kostyuk and his panelists delve deep into this text in a manner that will leave you...blessed.
