Beatitudes Are Attitudes

There are so many things that happened when Christ Jesus gave his Sermon on the Mount. People came from all around to hear the word of God. Imagine what it must have been like as the Lord Jesus himself spoke before the people! One very exciting thing that came from this sermon are the eight beatitudes. These eight beatitudes tell us how to live in a way that is right, just and holy. If everyone lived according to these eight beatitudes, there would be no more hunger or thirst on this earth, and everyone would be fed, clothed, warm and housed. There would be no more homeless people. War and greed would be a thing of the past. Award winning author, Penelope Dyan believes that every journey begins with a single step and every fire begins with a single spark, and this is why she wrote this special little book just for kids. It is a faith based book, but you do not have to be a believer in anything to benefit from the basic concepts presented in this book, and you will see some of her favorite comical characters as well, just to make you smile!
