A New Liturgy No 9: The Beatitudes invites us to center ourselves in the center of Jesus' way. Even as the container of modern Christianity wobbles and crumbles, Christ's invitation holds firm. He simply says "Follow me". The the beatitudes are a brilliant map of the pathway.
This 22 minute liturgy begins with a new song by Aaron Niequist called "Follow Me". (Sung by the amazing Ben Kilgore). From this expansive beginning, we are guided into a contemplative engagement with The Beatitudes through music, scripture, and the wisdom of Mark Scandrette. May the Spirit of Christ speak to us through the words of Christ. The final movement helps us collect the experience and offer ourselves to God, in the way of Jesus, for the sake of the world.
