From the Mountainside: Timeless Truths from the Sermon on the Mount (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780890989555)

In a world where anyone with a smartphone can upload a tutorial to the internet, we can instantly be connected to step-by-step directions for everything from deep frying a turkey to changing a tire to repairing a washing machine. It's great to have that kind of access when you have a question, but have you ever wished that life, in general, had a set of straightforward, simple instructions for how to live well?

It does. We find it in the Bible - specifically in Matthew 5-7 - in Jesus' preeminent series of lessons called the Sermon on the Mount.

The Sermon on the Mount is the standard or ideal of discipleship for all Christians. As we become more and more like the "ideal disciple," we will also become more and more like Jesus because the life that He followed is the life described in the Sermon on the Mount.

Phillip Eichman, the author of Hope in a World of Hurting and several titles in the FLEX Adult Bible Study series from 21^st Century Christian, takes readers on a deep journey inside the Sermon on the Mount, sharing the profound lessons for living as Jesus taught... from the mountainside.
