But Jesus presents meekness as a Spirit-shaped strength: the steadiness of a “heavy bag” that absorbs insult without lashing out, and the yielded power of a “broken and bridled” horse led by its rider.In this message, Pastor Seth:- Explores the nature of biblical meekness (or gentleness)  - Looks at examples of meekness in Moses, Paul, and Jesus  - Talks about how daily, deliberate discipleship forms meekness in us  - Points us to the staggering promise that the meek will inherit not just the land, but the whole earth in Christ  This sermon is part of our Beatitudes study in “The Good Life,” where we learn how Jesus turns the values of the world upside down and invites us into a better way to live.00:00 - Introduction08:30 - The Nature of Meekness14:12 - The Meekness of Moses16:51 - The Meekness of Paul19:25 - The Meekness of Jesus28:16 - How We Become Meek34:10 - What the Meek Inherit**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/GXBDgMRY5m7yxi_HlS4goT2oQ2OZEF4Z7EEPKUzxBTY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzIzMTg1LzE3MDQ5/MjA2NzYtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
