Wisdom Beyond Measure

by Donna Hughey

Overview

Wisdom Beyond Measure examines Jesus' well-known Sermon on the Mount with simple and concise text geared towards the everyday Christian. Through a question-and-answer format, this workbook discusses biblical principles (such as patience, motivation, integrity, and obedience) in ways that the everyday Christian can understand. The study also refers to other areas of Scripture to expand on the themes of the sermon, directing the reader to God's word for answers. Christians from all walks can benefit from studying the theology behind the Sermon on the Mount. Wisdom Beyond Measure encourages readers not only to apply biblical teachings but also to understand them. The study invites the reader to engage the sermon in a way they haven't before: by considering the sermon's message in terms of their salvation and ongoing faith. Suitable for individuals as well as Bible study groups, Wisdom Beyond Measure is an advanced study for the everyday believer.
