The critically acclaimed Preaching the Word series is an invaluable resource for those who take the study--and application--of God's Word seriously. Standing strongly in the series' tradition of unqualified commitment to biblical authority and clear exposition of Scripture is Kent Hughes's work on the Sermon on the Mount. For every believer, this sermon is the greatest ever preached because it records Jesus' own words regarding the rich truths of the Kingdom. Hughes faithfully explores the penetrating text, bringing forth the lessons from this "perfect standard of the Christian life."

Within the three chapters of Matthew known as the Sermon on the Mount are truths so rich and deep that no matter how often or how closely we examine their words, they continually bring new relevance to our lives. Do you want to know what kind of character you should have as a Christian? What should define your outer way of life and your inner habit of mind? Then study the Sermon. Ponder each sentence and test yourself by it.

There is no other section of Scripture that brings you face to face with your own humanity and the grace of salvation as the Sermon does. As Christ masterfully expounds on the Kingdom of Heaven, He presents believers with the perfect standard of the Christian life. He challenges the genuineness of our words and actions, allowing us to know exactly where we stand in relation to the Kingdom. Both humbling and encouraging, it is the greatest message ever preached.

Kent Hughes faithfully explores the words that penetrate our hearts, and brings forth the lessons from this matchless model of the Christian life.
