This week we’re going to study the blessedness of those who hunger and thirst after righteousness. I love this one. God has brought me a long way in my personal journey as I’ve learned what it means to embrace and depend on His righteousness over my own.
When we learn to exchange our misguided standard of righteousness for a God-produced righteousness, we find we long for more and more of God Himself. My prayer for you is for God to continue to move and work in your life through His transforming power.

DISCUSSION: How would you define or explain righteousness?
DISCUSSION: Why do you think God considers self-righteousness such a big deal?
It completely misses the point, cutting us off from Him. And, it makes us the kind of people who actively disregard and denigrate people who don’t meet our standards, because we don’t see them as brothers and sisters.
DISCUSSION: What insights did you discover through this lesson about the distinction between self-righteousness and God-produced righteousness?
