Ep. 2 - Poor In Spirit

Join Stu G and co-host Brian miller in conversation about the first Beatitude; "Blessed are the poor in Spirit."  What is a "poverty of spirit?" Did Jesus simply mean the extremely poor? What do we do when, as Eugene Peterson says, "we reach the end of our rope?" Jesus begins The Sermon On The Mount by flipping the script on what blessing or success looks like to us, and we discover that "the blessing" is God's presence with us.  Audio in this episode:  Sam Polk (Everytable) Sam is a former Hedge Fund Trader on Wall Street.  All Music from Beatitudes by Stu Garrard - The View From Here by Stu Garrard and Hillsong United.  You Will Make A Way by Stu Garrard and All Sons And Daughters  Episode Resource Links:  Sam Polk Everytable https://www.everytable.com/our-story/  Food For The Hungry (India) https://www.fh.org/  The Beatitudes Project https://www.thebeatitudesproject.com/  Beatitudes on Spotify  Beatitudes on Apple music --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thebeatitudesproject/message
