What it is

A philosopher's argument that the gospel has been reduced to a transaction about the afterlife, and a recovery of Jesus as a teacher whose Sermon on the Mount describes an available kind of life in the kingdom now.

Why it lasted

The central text of the recent spiritual-formation movement, and the book that put discipleship back at the centre of evangelical conversation.

Scripture it works from

Where to read it

Still in copyright. The Library describes it and points you at it; the text belongs to its publisher.

These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
