Blessed Are Those Who Mourn | Matthew 5:1-12 | Vaughan Roberts

Описание: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” — Matthew 5:4

What does Jesus mean? How can mourning possibly be blessed?

In this Oak Hill College Chapel message, Vaughan Roberts opens the second Beatitude and explores what it truly means to grieve over sin — our own, the church’s, and the world’s — and how that mourning leads to the deep comfort of the gospel.

This is a searching message about repentance, shame, confession, and the astonishing comfort found in Christ.
