The Beatitudes Society develops and sustains emerging Christian leaders at seminaries and divinity schools as they study, teach and practice the prophetic wisdom of Jesus as expressed in the Beatitudes
Why is it that [The Beatitudes] are so revolutionary that they actually cause the world to be turned upside down - and that those who espouse them as principles for daily living... are made to suffer persecution for daring to suggest that they are true?

Service Trip Participant - 2008
Spending a week on the Gulf Coast allowed me both the possibility to understand in a very real way the problems that still face Louisiana and Mississippi 3 years after hurricanes Katrina and Rita as well as the opportunity, in an admittedly small way, to help those individuals who still struggle daily with the reality of dire destitution. Many of these individuals are working class men and women whose salaries simply are not enough to recover from the total loss of a home for which insurance companies refuse to pay.
