Before the Session

  • Have the Bible Background Video ready to view.
  • Review today’s scripture text and the session activities to help better facilitate the discussion.
  • Encourage your group to listen to the FaithElement podcast ahead of the next session (Share the link via email or social media).

Context (From the Mind Session Page)

Share “Blessings” and ask:

  • How do you feel about the message of this video and why?
  • Given the lives we are living and the things going on in the world today, how would you define a “blessing” and why?
  • At what points are our expectations of blessing different from the ones the world might be placing on us?
  • Give the things we hear about in today’s news, how can we model “blessed” behaviors?
  • What is the difference between awaiting a blessing and being a victim or enabler of social disfunction?
  • How is our faith affected by our perspective on what it means to be blessed?

Content (From the Media Session Page)

Read Matthew 5:1-12, then watch the Bible Background Video and ask:
