How does being "pure in heart" shape the way we see God? We live in a world that constantly tells us to "follow your heart," but what if our hearts were made for something more? In this message, Pastor Maiola Vivas gently invites us to consider that Jesus is not simply interested in changing our behavior or helping us become better versions of ourselves. He is after something far deeper. He is after our hearts. Through the words of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, we begin to see that a pure heart is not about perfection, performance, or pretending to have it all together. It is about a heart transformed, made new, fully surrendered, and set on God.

As we journey through the Beatitudes, we're reminded of the beautiful truth that God does not leave us stuck in our brokenness. He lovingly takes away our hearts of stone and gives us hearts of flesh, hearts that long to know Him, trust Him, and walk in His ways. Even in our mess and our struggles, God meets us with grace and patiently transforms us from the inside out. Rather than striving to earn His approval, we are invited to rest in His love and learn what it means to follow Jesus with wholehearted trust.

But what does it really mean to see God? Is it only a promise for eternity or is it something we can begin experiencing even now? Find out as we explore the hope and joy found in the promise Jesus gives to the pure in heart.
