In Heart of the Gospel, Fr. Walshe demonstrates compellingly how these eight declarations from the Sermon on the Mount known as the Beatitudes make up the foundation, essence, and final goal of Jesus' teachings. They leads us to happiness--which is what beatitude means. In these rich meditations, he illuminates, explains, and draws out edifying parallels and connections with salvation history and the lives of the saints. Most importantly, he offers wise counsel from his own work as a priest and teacher to help us understand the Beatitudes and live them out in our lives, leading us to happiness now and in the world to come.
