MATA 5:9

Norėčiau su jumis pasidalyti esmine gyvenimui mintimi. Ji yra iš 1 psalmės: „Palaimintas žmogus, kuris nesielgia, kaip pataria bedieviai, nestoja į nusidėjėlių kelią, nesėdi su apjuokėjais.“ Ši eilutė moko mus krikščioniškos gyvensenos, tiksliau – kaip gyventi neturėtume. Tačiau kaip turėtume? Dėkojame Eric’ui Célérier ir Jesus.net už šio plano tekstą.

God’s Word tells us that He offers peace “which transcends all understanding” (Philippians 4:7 NIV). In this four-day study, you and your children will take a close look at the areas in our lives where we can experience that peace. Each day includes a prayer prompt, brief Scripture reading and explanation, hands-on activity, and discussion questions.

What truly matters is loving God and loving others, but how do we do that effectively? The truth is, we can’t love people well in our own power. But when we look to God and lay ourselves down in humility, we can live from God’s authentic and powerful love. Learn more about growing in love in this 5-day Bible Plan from Pastor Amy Groeschel.

In the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:2–12), Jesus urges us to set ourselves apart from the world, living in a counterculture with a new identity rooted in him. The Upside Down Kingdom examines this counterintuitive wisdom and explores its relevance for today.
