Living the Sermon on the Mount

Beschreibung

In Living the Sermon on the Mount, theologian and award-winning author Glen H. Stassen helps us to see that the revolutionary ideas in the Sermon on the Mount about loving and caring for each other, living in peace, and acting justly are not unattainable ideals but a recipe for wholeness and healing in our human relationships and deliverance from the vicious cycles that we get stuck in.

"This is the most helpful analysis of the Sermon on the Mount thatI have ever studied. It does not paralyze readers with idealism andforce us to dismissal, nor does it back off from a very realinitiative that we can take." --Richard Rohr, Franciscan priest; founder of the Center forAction and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico "This book is the blessed fruit of Glen H. Stassen'sseminal studies of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. Laced withmemorable stories that illustrate the Sermon on the Mount'srealism, this book excels in its interpretation and appropriationof Jesus' hard words both personally and politically. Wellwritten and often gripping, it deserves wide use by seminary anduniversity students and church study groups.: --Willard M. Swartley, professor emeritus of the NewTestament, Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary
