Jesus' Alternative Plan: The Sermon On the Mount (Used Paperback) - Richard Rohr

When Jesus talked about the Kingdom of God, he was talking about an utterly different way of relating to human society as we know it. He lays out a blueprint for this new life in his best-known teaching, the Sermon on the Mount. From the Beatitudes onward, the Sermon on the Mount overturns conventional wisdom and traditional power structures, offering a plan for an alternative way of being. 
 
Acclaimed spiritual leader and Franciscan priest Richard Rohr explores the implications of this vision in  Jesus’ Alternative Plan . Rohr goes through the teachings of the sermon, explaining the historical and cultural context of each verse and offering guidance for what it means for Christians today. The result is a clear, yet challenging look at the alternative plan laid out by Jesus for all to see.
 
This updated edition of  Jesus’ Plan for a New World  will inspire Christians desiring a transformative understanding of Jesus’ teachings and seeking the true heart of their faith.
