Matthew

The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus’ orientation address to His disciples. In the rest of the New Testament we find more details on how to build our lives to maturity, as individuals and as part of a church. But we can begin at no better place than here. This is where the Lord chooses to begin His disciples’ training with solid building blocks for a godly life.

Building On The Rock

Jesus ushered in a Kingdom that was upside down but needed to be lived from the inside out. In the Sermon on the Mount, He teaches the right interpretation of the law. This plan is by Navaz D'Cruz and Lasya D'Cruz based on a sermon series at Word Of Grace Church.

Creating a Counter Culture - a Study on the Beatitudes

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this faith-filled, wisdom-packed leadership devotional. “But Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God”, was created to lead a generation back to the heart of God. Choose to seek God in every season of your life. Choose to seek Him in everything that you do. Seek His counsel. Choose to turn to Him and surrender every area of your heart to Him.

But Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God.

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this heart-transforming prayer devotional. When you pray, don’t be like the heathen. For they desire the praise of man and not the approval of God. When you pray surrender your heart to God. Lay at His feet. Prayer is an intimate communing with God. Prayer is active warfare. There is power in prayer. Let God lead your heart as you read this powerful message. 

When You Pray.

Who is Jesus? This is the ultimate question. Because if Jesus really is who He said He is, it changes everything. But if Jesus is not who He said He is, it also changes everything. Join us in part two of our journey through the Gospel of Matthew to continue to discover the answer to this ultimate question.

Who Is Jesus? Part 2

Jesus often taught about the day of judgment and his return at the end of the age. However, sometimes, we find these sayings challenging to accept or understand and are tempted to avoid them! Over our four-day series, we will learn how parables on this topic in Matthew 24-25 can actually encourage us, help us live as his disciples, and prepare us for his return.

Ready for Jesus’ Return: Parables in Matthew 24-25

This reading plan is part of a series that will take you through the entire New Testament in a year. Each month's plan covers a specific book or books. December focuses on Matthew. The plan is designed to be used with a small group of friends. Read the daily passage first, reflect on one or all of the questions, and try the engagement practice.  

New Testament in a Year: December

This is the twelfth installment of a Bible reading plan following the lectionary pattern, offering daily readings from the Psalms, Old Testament, and New Testament. Each day includes a devotional primer to help prepare your heart and mind for a deeper, more meaningful encounter with Scripture. While this plan is designed to align with Holy Week in April, it can be used at any time, though it will be most relevant during that season.

Reading With the People of God #12 - the Good Life

Jesus came to set up a kingdom that never ends, and it will be like no other empire or movement the world has ever seen. But that’s because it will be led by someone who has no equal. Matthew introduces us to Jesus, and we will be as shocked as Matthew was when Jesus invited him, “come, follow me”.
