The World According to Jesus: His Blue Print for the Best Possible World
Author(s): Lorraine Parkinson
What kind of world would result if Jesus' teachings were actually taken seriously? Lorraine Parkinson offers an exciting new reading of the Sermon on the Mount as Jesus' vision for the best possible world, and as the 'raison detre' for a post-doctrinal church. Her approach to the Sermon on the Mount has a universal focus which invites people of all faiths, and of no faith.
