Description: In this world where entertainment is on the forefront of human consumption, the true meaning of the teachings of Jesus may be lost in adaptation. Film and show makers often dilute or totally disregard the richness of biblical themes for the purpose of the consumption of the general public. This book unpacks the layers of the Sermon on the Mount and looks at the historical, cultural and moral significance of the Beatitudes. The author shares personal stories of growth and how to practically apply these teachings. There is more to these stories than what is often depicted in movies and shows and they can be applied to the life of a modern believer.
