Ethan Linder: We’ve nearly discarded the word “meek” from our vocabulary: partly because we don’t understand what it means, and partly because it feels impractical, fragile… not fit for our moment. In every life, though, there comes a moment when we need a power that’s more than forcefulness, and a fortitude that’s based on more than blind optimism. “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth."

The Holy Hush
Steve DeNeff: Sooner or later there comes a hush in every person’s life, that moment when the unthinkable happens, when the last option has failed and we’re alone with our thoughts. What then? “Blessed are those who have lost what is most dear to them, for they are embraced by the One who is most dear to them.”

Quiet Desperation
Steve DeNeff: Who are the most holy among us? It’s not always who we think it is and despite our intentions to become more holy, we have learned habits that move us in the opposite direction. What are those habits? And how do we unlearn them?

Right-side Up
Emily Vermilya: The Beatitudes are not commands to achieve but radical declarations of blessing that reveal the Kingdom of God, where the overlooked and broken are already favored.

The Bright Shadow of Pentecost
Steve DeNeff: Pentecost is a towering moment in the Christian story. The Spirit comes, the Church is born and the gospel is preached to people in 15 regions on 3 continents. But there is a shadow - a bright shadow - that follows this moment with a series of peculiar attributes setting the people of God apart. To the extent these attributes are present in the Church today, she will live in the world as a Spirit-animated Body.
