Wait… That’s What Jesus Meant?

We’ve heard the Beatitudes countless times at Mass or when reading the Bible, but how much do we actually understand them?

In this episode, we wrap up our two-part discussion on Matthew 5 and what the Beatitudes really mean—and honestly, some of these hit harder than we expected.

🔹 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness…” Are we actually yearning for the right things?
🔹 “Blessed are the merciful…” But what about mercy for ourselves?
🔹 “Blessed are the peacemakers…” Does this mean avoiding conflict, or something more?

If the Beatitudes have ever felt confusing, intimidating, or just out of reach, this episode is for you. When we started looking at them through a different lens, everything changed.
