Before original sin, there was original BLESSING, as per Genesis 1:28’s verse, which begins “And God blessed them.”
Blessing is God’s first reflex, His default setting, and today’s guest, Mark Batterson, suggests that this sequence is one of utmost importance.
His newest book, Double Blessing: How to Get It. How to Give It., is about rediscovering God’s heart towards us, and then aligning our hearts with His.
Mark is the lead pastor of National Community Church in Washington, D.C., and is the New York Times best-selling author of 18 books. He lives with his wife, Lora, and their three children on Capitol Hill.
