When we hear the word “meek,” we often associate it with weakness or a lack of confidence. However, in Matthew 5:5, Jesus tells His disciples, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”

Today, Pastor Jack Morris unpacks the true meaning of meekness and how it is not about weakness, but about strength under God’s control. Join us as we explore how humility, gentleness, and a surrendered heart invite God’s blessings into our lives and position us to receive His promises.
