These 13 lessons on the Sermon on the Mount, the greatest sermon ever preached, are part of LifeGuide, a Bible study guide series which seeks to provide solid biblical content and to raise thought-provoking issues in an easy-to-lead format.
John R. W. Stott is known worldwide as a preacher, evangelist, and communicator of Scripture. For many years he served as rector of All Souls Church in London, where he carried out an effective urban pastoral ministry. A leader among evangelicals in Britain, the United States and around the world, Stott was a principal framer of the landmark Lausanne Covenant (1974). His many books, including Why I Am a Christian and The Cross of Christ, have sold millions of copies around the world and in dozens of languages. Whether in the West or in the Two-Thirds World, a hallmark of Stott's ministry has been expository preaching that addresses the hearts and minds of contemporary men and women. Stott was honored by Time magazine in 2005 as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World."
Excelente recordatorio de quienes somos, quién es nuestro Líder, maestro, Dios y Salvador. Nos recuerda que la identidad de la iglesia esta unicamente edificada en la Roca (Cristo) y nos desafía a no conformarnos a este mundo, sino realmente ir a contracorriente.
This is one of the Lifeguide Bible Studies, which is generally a good small group study series. My former Sunday School class liked the Lifeguide format and consequently used many of the guides. So I have first-hand experience, in an actual classroom setting, using many of the books in this series.
I say all that to say this: This particular guide is the best, in my opinion, in this series. There are a couple of reasons for that. Some of the questions in these guides tend to be more subjectively focused on how you might feel about a particular passage or statement. The questions in this guide are more objectively focused on the actual text. The other reason is because the guide closely follows Stott's full-length book on this passage, which is also excellent (but that's another review).
All of that makes this a much better than average small group study guide.
