Publisher's Summary:
God is on your side.
Too often we think of the Beatitudes as an instruction manual for living a good life, or some kind of spiritual ladder to climb. But in these announcements, our teacher is saying so much more. He is speaking personally and profoundly to the deep ache we all face when life gets broken and doesn't work out as we think it should.
Join Stu Garrard on an adventure to discover the surprising meaning of these words. Along the way, you'll meet peacemakers on the front lines of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the 21st-century meek in our own communities, and people living lives worthy of persecution.
After all, these words from the hill are speaking still. Inside the ache, the lack, and the "not-yet-ness" of life, we are invited to listen afresh, to lift our heads, and to share the surprising, upside-down announcement that God is on our side.

Challenging Book
Stu G takes on a wondrous journey through the Beatitudes expanding on what we thought we know about. Why do I say challenging read? Stu provides real life examples of people who Jesus was speaking of and to. Their determination to press on and live with love with compassion despite their circumstance challenges one to seek and become more in the way of Jesus. Read and be changed through this spiritually inspired work.
READ INTO THE WORD!
Great read with the enlightenment of a Biblical story from a different perspective. We may use this for adult Sunday School.
Unexpected artistry & an important message
Wow. This is a timely message for all of us. Creatively written and immediately engaging, the author wraps you up with his heart and a fresh take on the Beatitudes. I feel like this book broke me down and built me back up again. Paired with the album Beatitudes, it's really an extraordinary piece of art.
Powerful book with a powerful message
Stu has written a powerful book that brings The Beatitudes to life through his story and the story of others who are using their gifts to reach others for Him. I recommend this book as this will help you grow in your faith.
