SONG

Contemporary Christian artist Matt Maher's "And All the People Said Amen" quotes the several of the Beatitudes (especially about 2/3rds the way through the song). The song, however, is less about particular beatitudes, but about our RESPONSE to those blessings....

"give thanks to the Lord because his love never ends, ...and all the people said Amen."

Enjoy....

Older children and youth reflection on the Beatitudes.

"Live Like That" by the Sidewalk Prophets is an amazing and contemporary song that could be used as a reflection on the Beatitudes as Jesus instructions for how to live.

Here's the official version from the band with boldly presented lyrics and images.

Here's the "lyrics" version.

Rotation.org is a curated archive of creative Sunday School lesson plans, ideas, and resources contributed and improved by our members, volunteers, and staff. You are invited to share what you can and glean what you need. A free registration gives you access to additional content, features, and permission to post. A Supporting Membership gives you access to our Writing Team Lesson Sets, our free software and guide downloads, and much much more.

Founded in 1997, we are non-profit, non-denominational, volunteer-led, and member-supported.

How Our Content is Organized
Our lesson forums are organized by Bible story and then by teaching medium such as video, art, cooking, and drama, etc. (what Rotation Modelers call "workshops"). Because the Rotation Modelers who created and lead this site teach major Bible stories for four or five weeks in a row, some minor story forums may have less content. Traditional Sunday Schools can easily adapt "Workshop Rotation" style lessons.

Theologically Speaking
Rotation.org's history, content, membership, and leadership reflect the broad theological middle and mainline tradition.
