The Sermon on the Mount—been there, done that, right? It’s the “Casablanca” of the New Testament. We quote it without even realizing it.
And the Beatitudes? We literally have those embroidered on our walls.
But have we really listened to them? If the Sermon on the Mount hasn’t reached in and yanked our entire view of reality inside out, then we may know the sermon, but we haven’t heard it.
The Beatitudes are the first tremor in the seismic shift that is the Sermon on the Mount. This eBook is the start of a project that aims to look at the entire Sermon on the Mount, so we will say some things about the sermon overall. But since the Beatitudes are the way Jesus chose to open his sermon, whatever we say about the sermon applies just as well to them.
The Sermon on the Mount is a call. It is an invitation into something. The Beatitudes are the first glimpse of what that something is. And if you dare to look, you will find that this “something” is something very, very different, indeed.
Each chapter is short but powerful, and each ends with questions for reflection and discussion, making this is an ideal book for group study.
