The Beatitudes

Eight reflections exploring the counter-cultural words of Jesus in Matthew 5

About this book

Christians are called to model a way of life that challenges the status quo and infuses the world with hope and possibility - and Jesus teaches how to do this, not just by his words but by the way he lived.


Beautiful Attitudes features eight interactive Bible studies that dive deeper into the 'beatitudes', a series of teaching given by Jesus during his Sermon on the Mount and show us how we can better apply them to our lives today.

Beautiful Attitudes includes contributions from a number of theologians and biblical teachers, including Debra Green OBE, Rev Malcolm Duncan, and more. This interactive workbook is perfect for group and individual study.

It's time to grasp the vision for what is possible when ordinary people catch a glimpse of God's radical call to follow the Lord Jesus and embrace the beautiful attitudes he maps out for living life to the full.
