MATTHEW 25: I CAN’T GET THIS STORY OUT OF MY HEAD
One of the most remarkable stories of Jesus is found in today’s Journey Bible Project Blog, “The Sheep and the Goats,” from Matthew 25. What did Jesus mean for his first hearers to do? What are we to do with this tragic, hopeful story?
Matthew 7:1-5 | Don’t Judge!?
One of today’s mantras is “Don’t judge!” But how do we live our lives without any judgments whatsoever? Is that even possible? Did Jesus really say, “Do not judge?” This Journey Bible Project devotional is based on Matthew 7:1-5 in the Sermon on the Mount.
Matthew 6:25-34 | IS IT POSSIBLE TO STOP WORRYING?
Randy Harris talks about worry in humorous but real ways we can all relate to. Randy bases this Journey Bible Project devotional on Matthew 6:25-34 in the Sermon on the Mount.
MATTHEW 6:19-24 | HOW TO FIND YOUR HEART
We often get this text wrong. We read it backwards. Today Randy Harris and Greg Taylor show you how to stop reading this text backwards.
MATTHEW 6:5-18: DO YOU PRAY IN SECRET?
Do you pray? If so, do you pray secretly as well as publicly. If we pray at all, we need to pray secretly. If we pray publicly but not secretly, we may need to ask ourselves if we’re being honest to God followers of Jesus.
MATTHEW 6: ARE YOU IMPRESSED?
Most of us want to impress other people in some way. None of us are totally immune from this as human beings. Jesus says we need to be careful in this area. He says when we do deeds to impress others rather than out of devotion and love for God, well, God is not impressed!
MATTHEW 5: GOTTA DO BETTA THAN THE PHARISEES!
A big key that helps understand the Sermon on the Mount is to pay attention to Jesus saying, “For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven. In this post Greg Taylor points to six ways Jesus declares that we are to “surpass the form of righteousness” practiced by religious people.
MATTHEW 5: SALT AND LIGHT
Jesus calls us salt and light. He expects us to live into these images. What does that mean? Read today’s Bible Project blog by Greg Taylor and find out!
MATTHEW 1: BEGINNINGS OF THE KING
We begin four year journey through the Bible with a bang: a long list of names from Matthew 1:1-17. Are we really going to read this and preach on it? Why? Because we miss a huge piece of Matthew’s possible intent when we skip over what is called the “Genealogy.”
