Does It Sometimes Feel Impossible to Measure Up to God's Standards?

        On a hillside overlooking the Sea of Galilee, Jesus opened the doorway to the kingdom of God.
        He challenged His followers to pursue a faith without compromise. Without anxiety. Without judgmentalism. He encouraged them to build a faith that bears fruit. A faith built on rock. A faith that would be true to the only Lord and Master.
        Is that the kind of faith you want? It sounds impossible. It feels unreachable. How can you possibly measure up?
        Let Kay Arthur lovingly guide you through the life-changing Sermon on the Mount in her devotional study, Lord, I'm Torn Between Two Masters. It will minister to you in intimate ways. And these are truths you can share easily with others in small groups.

About the author

Kay Lee Arthur was an American Christian author, Bible teacher, and co-founder of Precept Ministries International. Renowned for her accessible and inductive approach to Bible study, she helped millions engage deeply with Scripture. Arthur began her ministry informally, teaching teenagers in her living room alongside her second husband, Jack Arthur. Their work soon grew into a global outreach, headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee, under the name Precept Ministries International. She hosted the daily Bible teaching program Precepts for Life and became a respected voice in evangelical circles. Arthur authored numerous books and was a four-time winner of the ECPA Christian Book Award for titles such as A Marriage Without Regrets and The New Inductive Study Bible. Her ministry was rooted in a personal reawakening to faith in the early 1960s, following a divorce and a return to religious life. She and Jack also served briefly as missionaries in Mexico before founding their ministry. Arthur remained active in public faith-based initiatives into her later years and was known for her firm stances on social issues. She passed away on 2025 leaving behind a lasting legacy in Christian education and publishing.

Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount and the kingdom of heaven were always difficult for me to understand. I took my time to work through this book, and I feel so encouraged and excited to see how God will use average me.

Author is a judgmental old hag. Abortion is a human right. It’s not murder if the damn fetus isn’t breathing until the time it’s born. Smh if she had left that part out of the book I would have liked it more.

Excellent study!

[Melanie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Love her studies. Love the inductive method and how she breaks down the meaning and relates to us in a real and honest way. It's a lot of work since I've been out of it for awhile. I did this study, taught this study, if I can even believe that....years ago. It is amazing how our experiences bring things to light and change with the seasoned, hurtful, triumphant and sins covered by grace life that we lead. I'm digging through it.

Another nice look at the Sermon on the Mount. Arthur is easy to read and the questions prompt you to interact with Scripture.

Another great Kay Arthur study with a focus on Jesus' sermon on the mount. Good to do on your own or in a study. Just the right amount of homework but is high-impact.

This Bible Study book satisfied my craving for getting deeper into the word when light devotional fare just wasn't doing the trick. I'm a huge Kay Arthur fan.
