Fulfilled: The Unexpected Story of the Redeemer

An Easter Study Through the Gospel of Matthew

He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. – Matthew 28:6

I love Easter. I love what it represents. I love what it means for us. But 2000 years ago, they didn’t know. They didn’t realize. They couldn’t see. Yet. The Gospel of Matthew provides a unique perspective on the life of Jesus, with a heavy emphasis on the Kingdom of God. Matthew points over and over to the fact that this kingdom was not like any kingdom found on earth. In fact, it was the complete opposite. It was an upside down kingdom. The kingdom Jesus came to establish was not one of military dominance and hierarchy and exclusivity. He wasn’t coming as a king to be served on earth, but rather a suffering servant. He came to redeem His people, to open the way to relationship with God the Father, to repair and restore the relationship between God and His people. And His kingdom would be comprised of set apart servants, people who looked different than the world, going and telling the world the Good News of Jesus Christ. 

This four-week inductive study takes you through the final week of Jesus’ life as told by the Gospel of Matthew using Four Simple Questions. Companion teachings will be available on YouTube and the Feasting on Truth podcast.

This isn’t the story one would expect from the Savior of the World. This is the unexpected story of the Redeemer. 

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
– Matthew 28:19-20

Way Maker
An Advent Study Through the Book of Hebrews

Jesus’ coming was more than giving us forgiveness of sins or to part the way before us. He came to part the divide between God and us, between us and heaven. Jesus is our Way Maker, and no other book gives us a more comprehensive view of Jesus this way than the book of Hebrews.

Stories from the Wilderness
A Study of the Israelites’ Journey from Egypt to the Promised Land

The wilderness. It is a place that feels hard, empty, lifeless and pathless, and it often leaves us with questions about who God is. But while we see a place that is worthless, confusing, and chaotic, God sees a place to display His power. Time and time again throughout Scripture, God takes the worthless, seemingly wasteful, confusing, chaotic, and empty places and uses them as a backdrop to prove His character, draw us in, and display His glory.

Light & Life: A Study of Psalm 119

We hear it all the time: we need to read the Bible every day. But why is it so important that we know, understand, and apply this ancient book to our lives today? What’s in it for us??

In Psalm 119, we see over and over that God’s Word brings life, and it’s a light to guide us. These 176 verses give us the most comprehensive look at the power and benefits provided to us in Scripture, and the character of the One who spoke the Word into existence. This is not power that can be mustered up in our own human strength or learned from reading any other book. It is a power that can only come from God Himself. If we truly knew the power the Word of God has in our lives, we wouldn’t be able to put it down.
