69. The songs we sing: Bless God

69. The songs we sing: Bless God

This week, Sarah reflects on Brooke Ligertwood’s Bless God and the Beatitudes in Matthew 5. What does it really mean to be “blessed”? And how can we bless God in return — even when life is hard? Join the conversation about worship, formation, and the kind of praise that costs us something.

Some questions to ponder:

1. I wonder what it means to be blessed when life feels anything but easy?

2. I wonder what it looks like to live as someone who is already blessed, rather than striving to be.

3. I wonder if I’ve overlooked the quiet blessings in my life because they didn’t look like success?

4. I wonder how the Beatitudes invite me to see others — especially those who are mourning, meek, or poor in spirit — as blessed.

5. I wonder what part of the Beatitudes speaks most to my current season?

6. I wonder how I can bless God
