  • The Spiritual Weight of Words (Part 1 of 2)

    The Spiritual Weight of Words (Part 1 of 2)
    Aug 27 2025
    How much does Jesus matter—and how much does my response to him matter? What is at stake when it comes to what we think of him and what we say of him? And, more fundamentally, what is at stake in the ministry of Jesus Christ itself? The stakes are higher than we might imagine because Jesus is engaged in a clash of kingdoms.

  • The Light Burden of Jesus Christ (Part 2 of 2)

    The Light Burden of Jesus Christ (Part 2 of 2)
    Aug 26 2025
    Matthew highlights for us the fact that Jesus brings true rest in utter contrast to what the religious leaders offered. Having told us that his yoke is easy and his burden is light, Jesus now confronts religious legalism and shows us that his Lordship overrules such pettiness and brings true healing and gospel freedom.

    Rest for the Weary Soul (Part 2 of 2)
    Aug 22 2025
    Reactions to Jesus were mixed in the days of his earthly ministry—and they remain so today. And to get to grips with the dynamics of peoples responses, we need to know and understand two aspects of Jesus character and identity that might almost seem contradictory, but which hold together perfectly in him: Jesus Christ has all authority—while at the same time, he is gentle and lowly.

  • Recognizing and Responding to Jesus (Part 2 of 2)

    Recognizing and Responding to Jesus (Part 2 of 2)
    Aug 20 2025
    As Jesus engages with the crowds, we begin to see how the world responds to Jesus Christ—and we see what Jesus makes of their responses. These engagements, of course, carry vital lessons for us as we consider our own response to Jesus. And so we want to observe them carefully to ensure that we respond rightly to Jesus—and keep on responding rightly to him.

  • The Kingdom That Divides (Part 2 of 2)

    The Kingdom That Divides (Part 2 of 2)
    Aug 18 2025
    In Matthew 10, Jesus sets out clear expectations for his followers of what it will look like to serve him and walk with him. And he wants us to know, quite frankly, that if we were trying to find our way to a lifestyle dream—a place of comfort and pampering—we have come to the wrong place, and we have chosen the wrong Lord.
