Because of Christ’s atoning sacrifice, the gift of grace is available to all. But how do we receive and use His gift, and to what end? Jesus Himself gave us the answer in His presentation of the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount. Like many scriptures, the Beatitudes can be interpreted in multiple and diverse ways. In Blessed Are Ye, gospel scholars Brad Wilcox and Roger Wilcox explore these varied interpretations and examine possible connections between the Beatitudes, the first principles and ordinances of the gospel, and temple covenants. Featuring a straightforward examination of sacred scripture and prophetic counsel as well as practical ideas for application, this inspiring volume will guide modern-day disciples of Christ to view and value the Savior’s Atonement in truly meaningful and personal ways.
