Hearts Aflame

Hungry for Righteousness

Dustin Benge

In "The Beatitudes," Thomas Watson unpacks two aspects of righteousness—imputed righteousness, which comes from Christ, and implanted righteousness, which transforms our hearts and lives. True blessedness comes from hungering after righteousness, a longing that is itself a sign of spiritual life. This episode challenges us to rest in Christ’s righteousness while earnestly seeking holiness. Just as a newborn hungers for milk, so should believers hunger for godliness.
