About this audiobook
Why is change so hard?
Don't you wish you could just snap your fingers and be spiritually mature? That the gulf between where you are and where you want to be wasn't so wide? That you could experience the blessing of godliness more?
Change is hard, it's true, but we often make it harder than it has to be. Momentum offers a better way forward, revealing how the Beatitudes - "blessed are the poor in spirit... blessed are the meek..." - hold the secret to change that gets easier with time. Learn:
• What each beatitude actually means
• How they work together to give momentum
• Practical ways to mature in each one
The Beatitudes aren't just poetic sayings; they're a way of life. If you want to make strides in overcoming sin, growing in godliness, and getting closer to God, this audio book is for you. And if you've lost hope that you can change, this audio book is especially for you. You can make progress, starting today.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5if you are looking for a light inspirational book, this is not it. If you desire to think deeply about Jesus's words that begin his Sermon on the mount, this is 5 stars. I find the most useful aspect to be the ladder nature of the Beattitudes...you dont get to rungs 5 thru 8 without first exploring, the first beatitude.
