Handle With Care | A Gentle-man

What does Jesus mean when he says, “gentle”? Jesus says he has a gentle heart and that the gentle (or “meek,” the same word in Greek) will inherit the earth. So, what is it that Jesus means when he uses the term "gentle”?

The gentleness question has taken me from the New Testament to the Old. Through word studies and commentaries and desperate Google searches, to times in prayer and many, many conversations.

In this message, we explore what it looks like to live as gentle-men, gentle-women, gentle-teenagers, etc. Spoiler alert, it has a lot to do with this: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth” (Matthew 5:5).
