About this title

Reviews

Major mid-life changes and the collapse of old structures (Mooneyham was formerly president of World Vision) underlie these reflections, but this is more a probing exploration of the Sermon on the Mount and the type of radical faith it calls for than a work of personal confession. Mooneyham discusses how Jesus' principles cut through convention and legalism and challenge believers to "dance" on the "strait and narrow" by focusing awareness, embracing the shadow side, and making a renewed commitment to passionate faith. Vividly alive and challenging.
