Blessed are the merciful

In this episode of Practical Christianity: The Podcast, we continue our study of “Blessed are the merciful” and what biblical mercy looks like in action. God is merciful, gracious, compassionate, and rich in love. Through Christ, He offers forgiveness, grace, rest, and eternal life. But mercy is also meant to transform how we treat others—through compassion, forgiveness, generosity, and care for those in need. We’ll look at how receiving God’s mercy should shape the way we live, especially in light of Jesus’ words about serving “the least of these.” Scriptures discussed: Matthew 5:7, Matthew 11:28, Exodus 34:6–7, Lamentations 3:22, Ephesians 2:4–5, John 3:16, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:8, Isaiah 49:15–16, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Matthew 25:37–40, and Matthew 6:14.
