The Beatitudes

Some 2000 years ago a man walked the earth who had a greater impact than any other person in history. Lowly born, he rose to prominence as he spread his vision of redemption of the world. He attracted the attention of both faithful disciples and suspicious local authorities. At the young age of 33 Jesus was tried, convicted, and executed. Today his story is known all over the world. And yet, more than two millennia later people still struggle to understand his Passion. These are some of his teachings. This book is an introduction to the Christian life that will guide you to a closer walk with Jesus. Sometimes you will find it controversial, and sometimes you will find it warm and "touchy-feely." Hopefully it will encourage a new desire for the Sermon on the Mount, and the other teachings of Jesus in the Gospels. If it touches your heart and gets you thinking it will have achieved its purpose.
