“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.” (Matthew 5:7) What does it mean to flourish through mercy? In this sermon, Pastor Mike unpacks Jesus’ words from the fifth Beatitude and shows how God’s mercy toward us shapes the way we live with others. Mercy isn’t just a duty—it’s a response to the mercy we’ve already received in Christ. Through stories, Scripture, and practical application, discover: Why mercy is radical in a world marked by judgment and self-interest How forgiveness and compassion flow from a heart humbled by grace The freedom of receiving God’s past, present, and future mercy How mercy becomes the pathway to true flourishing If you’ve ever struggled with forgiveness, bitterness, or knowing how to show compassion, this message will point you to the God who is rich in mercy—and invites us to live mercifully. 📖 Scripture: Matthew 5:7 🙌 Series: Made to Flourish: Kingdom Living in a Broken World
