GUY'S BOOK ON THE BEATITUDES
Living the Beatitudes Today
Why are the Beatitudes important? They’re not just a collection of wise old sayings. They’re much more than that.
My goal in my new book is to promote their role as keys to unlock the purpose of life.
As a teacher, I was intrigued by how Jesus introduced his first teaching session. He started with these famous sayings.
Living the Beatitudes Today is for all who wish to explore the nine opening statements of the Sermon on the Mount in depth. It answers the question of whether the Beatitudes are relevant and practical today. The companion study guide takes the keen student into an in-depth and rewarding course of study. Living the Beatitudes Today looks at how the Beatitudes are like a hinge between the Bible’s Old and New Testament.
​
They also practically express the two great commandments and the golden rule.
​
The Beatitudes are not only the basic building blocks of our spiritual life, but also the gospel itself in a nutshell. Those who accept, embrace, memorise, study, and build their lives around them, will be blessed—a promise from Jesus Himself.
Never has this message of the Beatitudes been needed as much as now. Head to the blog to find out more and keep up to date.
"The Beatitudes do not come automatically to us, neither do they come just by reading them. They need to be imparted and worked into our lives by the power of our Creator, and then worked out in our lives on a daily basis..."
