Ep. 1 - What Does It Mean To Listen
Stu G and co-host Brian Miller give some background to The Beatitudes Project and discuss the first thought - What does it mean to Listen? Jesus gave us The Beatitudes on a hillside two thousand years ago. With these conversations, we want to invite you back on that hill, but can we put aside what we think we know of the text and listen to Jesus with fresh ears just as the people listened on the hillside back then?
