Lifechange
Matthew
"MATTHEW. With its emphasis on the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, Matthew's gospel forms a natural bridge between the Old and New Testaments. While it is directed toward Jewish readers, it has never been limited in its audience. From the visit of the Magi reported at the beginning of this gospel to the words of the Great Commission at its conclusion, the larger sphere and interests of the Messiah are clear. Throughout Matthew's gospel we learn that Jesus is indeed the promised Messiah, come to redeem His people.

Excellent study!!

Most Bible study books I've read in groups have gone something like this—
"God so loved the world that…"
1. What did God love?
2. How much did he love it, a little or a lot?
This is why I tend to eschew adult Sunday School and women's Bible studies. But I'm back in the saddle again. Thankfully, this series goes a bit beyond that, although there are traces of the "answer the obvious" questions. It's fairly in depth, as far as these things go, with some historical background and lots of questions, but too many of the questions involve the typical, "And what did that verse we just told you to read say?"

All of the books in this series are solid theologically and ask good questions. Its the best single series I've personally used for introducing a book along with its purpose and who it was written to (if its an epistle) and why it was written. Very good stuff.
