The Challenge: DAY 16 – Beatitudes #1
The DISCIPLES
Welcome to DAY 16 of the 40-Day Mission-Minded FAMILY CHALLENGE!
During this fourth week, we’re going to focus on memorizing and studying the Beatitudes from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. Today’s focus is Matthew 5:1-2, and the difference between being a “disciple” of Jesus, or a “disciplined” one who follows hard after God, rather than merely “one of the multitudes” in church.
C’mon . . . Take the Challenge!

A few questions for feedback:
Would you say your family leans more toward being one of the multitudes, or are you growing as disciples (or “disciplined ones” following Jesus)? Think about each member of your family; how is each person (parents and kids included) growing and maturing, right now, as a faithful disciple of the Lord?

It’s exciting to hear that your family is still going through the CHALLENGE (all the way to #16 — AWESOME!!!). Thanks for the encouragement and words of blessing. YES, we are so very thankful for the BLOOD of our wonderful LORD JESUS!!!
Ann,
We are loving each new challenge! Thank you for the time and effort you put into this….and especially your passion for the Blood of Christ and all He can do with His people
May He richly bless you and your family!
Thank you again for this ministry. I have truly enjoyed your teachings and my boys (ages 5 & 6) have learned the hand commands. Now, when we talk about something and it applies to the 10 commandments I ask them which command it is and they know them! It is awesome.
I am looking forward to this new challenge since both of our boys love to draw. It will be fun to see how they translate the Scripture to pictures.
May God continue to bless you, Ann, and your family as well as the ministries that you are a part of.
I LOVE teaching the difference between the disciples and the multitudes. I think I’ll connect this to our chickens in that some are our pets, they come to us and eat out of our hands, they have special names, etc. Others are just chickens. LOL!
