The Beatitudes: A Heart Shaped by God.

Synopsis

*Blessed Are You* by Donald Johnson explores the Beatitudes in Matthew 5:1–12, helping readers understand Jesus’ words and apply them to everyday life. Drawing from his teachings, Johnson examines what it means to be poor in spirit, to mourn, to be meek, to hunger and thirst for righteousness, to show mercy, to be pure in heart, to make peace, and to remain faithful amid persecution. Through clear explanations, practical reflections, and questions for personal or group study, this short book invites readers to examine their attitudes, deepen their dependence on God, and reflect Christ in their relationships and choices. Accessible to new believers and those seeking to grow in faith, *Blessed Are You* encourages a life shaped by God’s character and sustained by His promises—even through hardship.
