In this fresh look at the Beatitudes, the author unravels the historical details of the geography, culture, and customs of the people to whom Jesus spoke, then adds sparkling stories from modern life to make the text come alive today.
If you are on top of the world, thinking that nothing can get you down, beware of the hidden dangers. If you are a hapless victim of circumstances, slogging through a spiritual slough, your persecution, your hunger, your poverty, can be cause for rejoicing! Either way, you need this book.
For all who delight in paradox; for all who need a spiritual pick-me-up-and-kick-me-forward; for all whose spirit is burdened with life’s ennui or poisoned with the cyanide of guilt, loneliness, lust, or resentment, Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount promises blessing beyond belief.
