Free Book - Insurmountable
by Dr. John Ortberg

FREE BOOK - Insurmountable

John Ortberg was one of my pastors growing up in Chicago. He has been teaching (online) about the sermon on the mount. This was the core message of Jesus. John Ortberg does a great job with this new free book. I wanted to share it with you in case you didn't know about it.

Insurmountable Book is Here!

Whether you know it or not, you have access to the greatest, most impactful talk in the history of mankind. In The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus delivered a breathtaking guide for how to be a good person in the eyes of our heavenly Father. It was the most influential teaching in the human race, and nothing else is even close.

The Sermon on the Mount has impacted ethical conversations, influenced renowned leaders and thinkers, and has served as a marker for followers of Jesus for centuries. And it’s what we get to study together in this book.

In “Insurmountable,”John Ortberg masterfully weaves together theology, story, and practical application to help readers understand Jesus’ teachings in a fresh and relatable way. When you read this book, you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of Jesus’ instructions and new ideas for how to put them into action. Not to mention, your faith will grow all the while.

I will end with a favorite quote.

"Our aim under love is not to be loving to this or that person, or in this or that kind of situation, but to be a person possessed by love as an overall character of life."

—Dallas Willard, 'Life Without Lack'
