Blessed are the poor in spirit…blessed are those who mourn…and six others. All very well in the Bible, but what do Christ's Beatitudes mean for those struggling with present-day stresses? Surprisingly, answers may come from long ago when 17th century Minister Jeremiah Burroughs explained and applied Jesus' words with clarity, gentle encouragement, and not-so gentle challenges that have never been forgotten. His classic text is now reworded in modern English and abridged for today's reader.
