This collection of essays and sermons challenges us to consider the
Sermon on the Mount as Jesus' serious proposal for an alternative
society, a speech of resistance to the forces and institutions that
dominate the world. This two-part volume brings together the
thoughts of biblical scholars and storytellers, theologians and
historians, and evangelical and mainline scholars. Eighteen writers
tackle Jesus' landmark sermon, as timely in today's discussions of
empire, occupation, poverty, and wars as ever. They demonstrate
that the Sermon on the Mount puts before us not an impossible
ideal, but a vision of what God's people can be when they choose by
God's grace to live in God's Kingdom. Contributors include: editors
David Fleer and Dave Bland, Ronald J. Allen, Chris Altrock, Lee C.
Camp, Charles Campbell, Warren Carter, Jeff Christian, Dennis
Dewey, Stanley Hauerwas, Richard Hughes, Kenneth R. Greene, Lucy
Lind Hogan, Charme Robarts, Rubel Shelly, John Siburt, Dean Smith,
and Jerry Taylor.
