Jesus invites us to be rooted in faith and journey toward a deeper relationship with him that is radically different from the way of the world. Jesus begins his greatest teaching on this deeper faith, the Sermon on the Mount, with eight “beatitudes,” as they are commonly called. These profound statements guide us to what living as a citizen in the kingdom of God looks like. They show us a radical life as a disciple of Jesus. But the life Jesus calls us to is shocking. He shows us that following him as a citizen of the kingdom of God is upside down or inverted from the ways and values of the world. To become like Jesus requires we take a different journey, and that path is spelled out in the Beatitudes. The path leads us to become more like Jesus.
