About this ebook

Dr. John Day, Bible scholar and pastor, begins with the paradoxical Beatitudes and takes us through our Lord’s greatest Sermon in depth, offering readers a “mind-expanding and life-transforming” experience.

How can the meek inherit the earth? How are the persecuted blessed? While these are not things that we naturally associate with happiness, this is Jesus’ startling opposite-from-the-world way of bringing us into the most blessed and happy life—an extraordinary Christian walk.

“This provocative break with our own comfortable presuppositions ultimately drives us to the Cross where our own failings can be exchanged for the righteousness of Christ.”

Author

John N. Day

John N. Day is the pastor of the Longbranch Community Church in Longbranch, WA, where he has served since 2011. He loves to see lives transformed by the Word of God, the gospel of Jesus, and the power of the Holy Spirit. He received his PhD in Old Testament from Dallas Theological Seminary in 2001. In addition to Truth Standing on Its Head, he is the author of Crying for Justice: What the Psalms Teach Us about Mercy and Vengeance in an Age of Terrorism (Grand Rapids: Kregel, 2005). He has a passion for music, and performs locally with The Bluegrass Minstrels, along with The Day Brothers. He is blessed to be married to Ngozi, and together they are seeking to raise their blended family and youngest child, Judah, in the Lord.
