What does it mean to be poor in spirit—and why is it the pivot of human life and history? In this episode of Faith & Family Bible Study, Steve Wood explains how the Beatitudes describe the inner life of Christ formed in the believer, not a checklist of steps. Focusing on the first Beatitude, Steve traces the root of human suffering to pride in Genesis, connects it to modern moral relativism, marriage struggles, and end-times warnings, and shows why humility before God is essential today. A timely call to dethrone the self and live fully united to Christ.
