The Beatitudes

In Re next week we will be looking closely at the Beatitues. They can be found in Matthew's Gospel 5:3-12.

Below is a clip from the film "Jesus of Nazareth" showing "The sermon on the mount".
Have a look!
What do you think each Beatitudes means?
What messages do they contain about living as a follower of Christ today?
