Book Description

March 1999
THEY WERE THE DISCIPLES' FIRST FORMAL INSTRUCTIONS.

In his first private session with the disciples, Jesus didn't give them His mission statement or a plan to change the world. Instead, He used eight succinct sentences, ninety-six simple words, to draw a picture of what He required in a disciple. He gave the instruction manual for discipleship with an attitude: the Beatitudes.

Walk This Way makes life-changing discipleship accessible to everyone. Each chapter takes a look at one of those first instructions and then helps you think it through, talk it over, and live it out. It creates an interactive mix of the Beatitudes with culturally relevant quotes and statistics, top ten lists, and stories to guide you to walk the way Jesus did.

Whether you're in need of refreshment or a place to start, Walk This Way provides the simple instruction manual you need.

"The Beatitudes are the key to ordinary Christians living extraordinary lives and Tim has captured a unique way to help us all Walk This Way."-Rich Hurst, MDiv., national consultant for Cook Communications International, author of Calling and Giving the Ministry Away.

"Looking at today's TV and newspapers, does anybody have to be reminded that we constantly need new, vital, contemporary instruction to how to 'walk the walk' and not just 'talk the talk'? I can't wait for Tim Woodroof's excellent book to be made available everywhere, and as soon as possible! I wish we could pass a law making it imperative for every American to read this book!"-Pat Boone

"Fully in touch with both the terrain of modern life and the map of Jesus' teaching, Walk This Way is an incredibly useful guide to Christian living. I will be recommending this book to new Christians and some 'old' ones as well."-David Davenport, president, Pepperdine University

"Tim Woodroof has taken one of the most well known sections of the Bible and shed a dynamic new light on it. Walk This Way is a concise, understandable presentation on the Beatitudes."-Trevor J. Bron, senior teaching pastor of The Next Level Church, Denver, Colorado

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book- helped teach me about being Christ's discipl, November 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Walk This Way: An Interactive Guide for Following Jesus (Paperback)
I've never read a book that taught me so much. Much of my life I skimmed over Jesus' first words to his disciples, but Walk This Way dove deep into the meaning that Jesus had for his disciples back then as well as for his disciples today. I believe this book is God inspired, and will help change your life concerning your relationship with Christ and the world around you. After reading it through 3 times, I am now using it as a study guide to teach a Sunday School class. The book does a good job in helping to facilitate discussions within a group.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can the Beatitudes REALLY be that good?, May 3, 1999
This review is from: Walk This Way: An Interactive Guide for Following Jesus (Paperback)
Tim Woodroof takes an "MTV" approach to the Beatitudes. With many in-set factoids that relate the truths to today's issues, Woodroof finds nuances that excape most of us when we read the beginning of what is called "The Sermon On The Mount." Jesus' ten pithy little phrases hold much more meaning and impact after reading through this work book. Don't read this as a book, read it as a tool for catching the deeper meaning of the very core of following Jesus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Exposition of the Beatitudes, October 8, 2003
By 
Leo Lauffer "leonlauffer" (Keizer, OR United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Walk This Way: An Interactive Guide for Following Jesus (Paperback)
I echo the comments of the others who have reviewed this book. It really is that good! The author devotes a separate chapter to each of the eight qualities of heart with which Jesus began the teaching and transformation of his disciples. With a wealth of gripping word pictures and illustrations, the author leads the reader through each stage of this transformative journey. He ably demonstrates that the order in which Jesus presented these qualities was not simply random, but a sequence essential to genuine discipleship. He also ably uncovers the essence of each beatitude and destroys the shields we typically use to deflect their impact.

The main text of each chapter is followed by a lighthearted "Top Ten List" that illustrates each quality (usually in reverse). After that, each chapter contains four other sections that provide, in turn, a biographical vignette, weekly study guide, discussion questions, and practical application relevant to the Beatitude under consideration.

No book on the beatitudes has stirred my heart like this one. I highly recommend it.
