When it comes to the teachings of Christ I think too often people, including many Christians, fail to connect him to the modern world and their own life circumstances. They may read his words but fail to make a connection to their own life thereby making Christ is a man of the past, not of the present. This is where this book is so surprising and valuable. The author continuously makes connections between Christ's own words and modern stories (often taken from the author's own life) and events. This has the powerful effect of having our savior's words brought into a modern context which makes them relevant for today. If you are looking to be inspired by how Christ's words have helped others and how they can help you too you will likely find value in this book. I know I did. Recommended.
