Opis

In this outstanding exploration of the Beatitudes, first published in 1946, Father Gerald Vann offers a moving and poetic description of our Lord's Sermon on the Mount. He shows that, far from being considered some kind of escape from the real world, the Beatitudes guide our worldly action toward serving God through the service of the souls around us.

As the author briefly summarizes in his introduction, "The Beatitudes tell us how to be happy; the way to be happy is to search for something else." That "something else" is the theme of this book.

Opinia czytelnika (amazon.co.uk)

My copy lost its cover after many years, so I picked up a copy second hand on Amazon (plug over!) This is a reminder, in our shallow world, that there are depths of human experience and knowledge that go so far past anything television or the press consider normal. For normal is dull, and this book is never dull.

If your walk with Christ needs enlivening, deepening, widening, read this text and be truly challenged. A book that should never be out of print and should be as widely available as possible.
