\"Blessing\" is a religious-sounding word that we use a lot. We say “Bless you!” after a sneeze, or that we're “so blessed” when life is good. We may even use #blessed when posting a vacation photo. But what does blessing mean in the Bible? In this video, we trace the theme of blessing and curse in the Bible to see how Jesus defeats the curse and restores the blessing of life to creation.
