Welcome to Episode 43 of the Among Women “Espresso Shot”
– a short strong coffee break of faith sharing and teaching from Pat Gohn.
Today’s topic: The Beatitudes - "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be children of God."
In this espresso shot, I examine the seventh Beatitude from Matthew 5:9: "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be children of God." (NAB)
This is the seventh podcast in a 9-podcast series devoted to reviewing the eight Beatitudes that open Jesus' Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew. In this podcast, as with the previous ones in this series, I'm examining how peacemaking not only reflects Jesus, but it ought to be part of our vocation and, finally, point us toward heaven.
