Hard Enough Already: Following Jesus in the 21St Century: Teachable Moments from the World's Most Famous Sermon - Hardcover
by Johnny White (Author)
Jesus' Sermon on the Mount is the most familiar sermon in the world. Jesus of Nazareth spoke it over 2000 years ago. The Sermon on the Mount provides insight into the authentic Jesus of the bible. Jesus did not come to make things more complicated than they already are by limiting salvation to only a few. Instead, he upheld impossible possibilities that point to the undeniable grace of God for the many. Have you ever asked yourself, "Who was Jesus? Is the Bible true? Or how do we know the bible is true?" Then Johnny White's Hard Enough Already: Following Jesus in the 21st Century could be a good Christian book to explore. It will help you answer, "What did Jesus say in the Sermon on the Mount?" Jesus' Sermon on the Mount is still a critically important message for followers of Jesus in the 21st century. This brief Christian book addresses every word and topic of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus is drawing the watching world to remarkable teachable moments about being salt and light citizens in the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. He also unpacks what the authentic Jesus looks like to those who want to follow him. Jesus pointed to a life more abundant than retribution, revenge, and violence. He told of the Third Way of mercy, forgiveness, and grace that refuses violence yet never fails to confront evil. The author helps people understand who Jesus is today and how to trust in him even amid a crisis of belief. What could be more apropos for a contentious uncivil time such as this? No matter what happens next.
Johnny White is a Christian minister and follower of Jesus. A lifelong student of the Bible, he believes that all truth is God's Truth, there is objective Truth in scripture, but truth must be personally experienced. Therefore, both objective Truth and subjective truth are essential. He has academic credentials, but those are less important to him than life lessons about the necessity of a Loving God. He knows that he does not know what he does not know! Johnny is less concerned about unproveable doctrines of orthodoxy than about the undeniable ramifications of the Gospel. He believes the world would be a better place if redeeming grace, forgiveness with mercy, and reconciled relationships replaced the competitive necessity of winning, replaced revenge and retaliation, and replaced violence as a means to peace.
He is most grateful for his spouse and helpmate of fifty years, Patricia Robertson White, along with his family, children, grandchildren, and friends.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
