Daily devotions work wonders. In this fine collection of reflections on the Sermon on the Mount, Dr. Garner encourages us to meditate upon Jesus's words, consider their meaning, put them into practice, and pray for the Lord's blessing in the midst of work and life. A verse, a reflection, a question, a practice, and a prayer will greet you, as you travel for a month with Jesus, putting his preaching into practice.
