{"product_id":"the-ladder-of-the-beatitudes-jim-forest-9781570752452","title":"The Ladder of the Beatitudes","description":"Drawing on stories from the lives of the saints, scripture, and everyday life, Jim Forest opens up the mysteries of the beatitudes. These ancient blessings, with which Christ began his Sermon on the Mount, are all aspects of communion with God. As Forest shows, they are like rungs on a ladder, each one leading to the next. They appear at the doorway of the New Testament to provide an easily memorized summary of everything that follows, right down to the crucifixion (\"Blessed are you who are persecuted\") and the resurrection (\"Rejoice and be glad\").\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jim Forest\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1570752451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781570752452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Orbis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.23h x 5.35w x 0.53d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/1999 pg. 100","brand":"Jim Forest","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995768914175,"sku":"9781570752452","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_00157f60-3810-4c93-811d-20949d9efc3e.jpg?v=1683337739","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ladder-of-the-beatitudes-jim-forest-9781570752452","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
