Journeying with Matthew
offers a brief and accessible guide to
the Gospel of Matthew. Like the
previous volumes in this series,
Journeying with Matthew
follows the Revised Common
Lectionary. Each chapter corresponds
to a season of the liturgical year and
the Gospel passages read during that
season. Inside readers will find an
introduction to the biblical text that
looks at historical and literary themes;
imaginative new ways to encounter
Matthew in preaching and study,
including poetry; and reflections on the
text's meaning for contemporary
Christian life. Each chapter ends with
an action item, reflection questions,
and a prayer.
Perfect for
lectionary pastors to use during
personal reflection and sermon
preparation, this inspiring resource will
serve as an essential guide along the
journey of encountering Jesus in the
Gospel of Matthew.
