📖 The Twelve TWL 3 Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will! Today, we’re diving into the life of Andrew, one of the Twelve disciples and a man who truly embraced what it means to serve with humility and joy. Andrew wasn’t in the spotlight like his brother Simon Peter, but his willingness to “play second fiddle” made him one of the mo...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into the life of Simon Peter. Did you know that Peter was the only disciple Jesus formally renamed? Originally named Simon, which means “listening,” Jesus changed his name to Peter, or “the rock,” not because he was already steadfast, but because of what he would become in J...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. 🌿 In today’s world, many focus on personal peace, and we see a rise in identity politics, with everyone demanding tolerance for their views.

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. In Matthew 5:9, Jesus said: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God." Peace doesn't just happen—it must be made. The blessing isn’t for the peaceful or even peacekeepers, but for those who make peace. Being a peacemaker means stepping into conflict, understanding i...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into Matthew 5:8: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.” What does it mean to have a pure heart? It means our hearts are undivided and focused on one thing: God and His glory. No compartments, no divisions—our lives revolve around Him. Jesus reminds us that...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into the 5th Beatitude, found in Matthew 5:7: “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” In a world where mercy was once seen as weakness, Jesus declares that mercy is a blessing! But what exactly is mercy? It’s loving kindness shown through acts of compassion...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into the fourth beatitude found in Matthew 5:6: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” At first glance, it may seem that Jesus is calling for go-getters who will strive to achieve righteousness with all their might. But actually...

Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we continue our journey through the Beatitudes, where Jesus shares the surprising blessings found in God’s kingdom. In Matthew 5:5, Jesus says: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” To the crowd on that mountainside, this statement was shocking—meekness didn’t get you...
