My Saturday Recommendation

October 28, 2006

Joe,

As you know, I am devoting the next several months to preaching through the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7.  As my Saturday recommendation I thought I would comment on the book that has most helped me most so far in my meditations.  It has given me material for preaching, but more importantly, food for my soul.  The book is Studies on the Sermon on the Mount, by Martyn Lloyd Jones. 

When I tell people that I am estimating 30-40 sermons to make it through the Sermon on the Mount, most people seem amazed that it could take that long.  But Lloyd-Jones’ book is a compilation of 60 sermons he preached on the Sermon on the Mount back in the 1950’s.  I don’t think it will take me that long, but God has used this book to stir my soul as I have sought to faithfully unpack Jesus’ words.
