What does it really mean to live the blessed life?In this message, Dr. Trent Langhofer kicks off Trace Church’s Sermon on the Mount series by unpacking Jesus’ radical definition of blessing from Matthew 5. Contrary to culture’s version of happiness, Jesus invites us into a life of deep flourishing that is rooted in surrender, formation, and alignment with God.Walking through the Beatitudes one by one, this sermon explores how the blessed life is not built on comfort, success, or circumstance, but on humility, dependence, mercy, purity, peacemaking, endurance, and faithfulness to God even in hardship.If you are searching for meaning, wrestling with pain, navigating doubt, or longing for a life that truly lasts, this message reframes what blessing looks like through the life and teachings of Jesus.This sermon was preached at Trace Church in Colorado Springs.Scripture focus: Matthew 5:1–12Series: Sermon on the MountMessage title: The Blessed LifeSpeaker: Dr. Trent Langhofer, Teaching PastorIf this message encour
