An Enduring Gift at the Heart of Ministry: How One Church Honored Their Longtime Pastor
Dec 4, 2024
The author of what has become the standard evangelical commentary on Matthew brings his exegetical prowess and expository gifts to bear on chapters 8-10 of that Gospel. "When Jesus Confronts the World" constitutes the fourth in his series of expositions, a series that began with "Sermon on the Mount." In Matthew 8-10, the author writes, "we are presented with a number of things that transpire when Jesus confronts the world. Some of these are quite wonderful… Others are frankly frightening… Still others are simply startling… And some are alarming to sincere followers of Jesus… The confrontation between Jesus and the world helps to clarify the nature of both Jesus and the world."
