The Good News of Jesus is not supposed to be respectable! It’s a radical call to live a humble and sacrificial life. As Christians, we believe the four Gospels are not just historical books but words inspired by God to teach and transform us to become more like Jesus. As you read through Matthew, one chapter a day, we hope this journey will challenge you to live out the radical message of Jesus. Get ready for the Gospel of Matthew!

The Gospels - Matthew 

The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most incredible passages of scripture in the entire Bible. It is the longest passage of Jesus speaking without interruption. The Beatitudes, or attitudes of supreme blessing, are a roadmap for our lives, teaching us to reflect the nature of Jesus Christ in every interaction. Throughout this devotional, we will spend three days on each beatitude, ending with a focus on applying the entirety of it to our daily lives.

Sermon on the Mount: The Beatitudes

Find hope in Jesus by exploring the opening chapters of Matthew’s Gospel. These chapters reveal who Jesus is: fully human, fully divine, Immanuel—God with us.

He is the beloved Son of God, fulfilling the promises made to Abraham and David. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus not only shows us how to live in the kingdom of God but also makes a way for us to enter it. As His ministry begins with the call to repentance, we see the long-awaited kingdom finally breaking into the world. Hope is here!

Find Hope: Matthew 1-4

This simple plan will lead you through the Gospel According to Matthew from beginning to end.

Holy 90 (The Four Gospels)

This plan walks through the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:9–13, where Jesus teaches us how to pray.

The Lord's Prayer (The Model Prayer)

What did Jesus mean when he said, "Seek first the Kingdom of God"? Explore these famous words of Jesus found in Matthew 6:33, and consider his way of valuing love and life more than status and wealth. Jesus never minimizes physical needs, but he helps us rethink the things we often love most.

BibleProject | How to Seek First the Kingdom

Jesus emphasized the importance of the faith of people in enabling God to work in great power. But what does faith-filled prayer that moves mountains look like? There are many misconceptions around the place. This plan takes you through seven of Jesus' statements on faith in the Gospel of Matthew and draws out a clear picture of mountain-moving faith that will both encourage and challenge you. 

Mountain Moving Faith and Prayer

Matthew, one of Jesus’ inner circle, was inspired by God to write one of the four biographies about Jesus, and it can change your life. From the ultimate message on Christian living (Sermon on the Mount) to the invitation to find rest in Jesus, from the parables to understand God and grace to the final week of Jesus’ life, Matthew offers us a Jesus Christ Crash Course.

Jesus Christ Crash Course (Part 1)

Who is Jesus? This is the ultimate question. Because if Jesus really is who He said He is, it changes everything. But if Jesus is not who He said He is, it also changes everything. Join us in part three of our journey through the Gospel of Matthew to continue to discover the answer to this ultimate question.

Who Is Jesus? Part 3

With more than fifty citations from the Old Testament, Matthew stands in the gap to unfold the grand drape of the New Testament stage, proclaiming that all messianic prophecies in the past have now been fulfilled in Jesus. The Kingdom of God will now be extended through the building of Christ’s church, and the promise to make Abraham’s descendants numerous will now be fulfilled through the Great Commission.

Through the Bible: Matthew

Who is Jesus? This is the ultimate question. Because if Jesus really is who He said He is, it changes everything. But if Jesus is not who He said He is, it also changes everything. Join us in the final part of our journey through the Gospel of Matthew as we discover the answer to this ultimate question.


Who Is Jesus? Part 4

Matthew’s Gospel opens the New Testament by brilliantly introducing the culmination of the entire Old Testament story. After thousands of years and dozens of generations, Jesus had come “to save his people from their sins” (Mathew 1:21). Matthew focuses on Jesus as King of Kings, who had come to reign on the throne of David forever. 

Christ as King: A Study in Matthew

In Matthew 26-28, we read in detail about Jesus' suffering, death and resurrection. This reading plan will help you go step by step through this impressive story and discover how these events have great meaning for you as well.

In the darkness of whatever valley you may be walking through, the journey of Jesus’ last week reminds us that the kingdom Jesus established plays by different rules. In this eight day series, experience Holy Week on Jesus' terms.

Daily Bible Reading – April 2023 God’s Saving Word: Hope

In part three of this verse-by-verse breakdown of the Gospel of Matthew, we'll work our way through Matthew 8-12.



Matthew 8-12: The Mission of the Kingdom

In a world that is seemingly losing its footing, Jesus, in the greatest sermon ever delivered, challenges us to take the higher ground. Jesus' Sermon on the Mount is a powerful message that has captivated hearts for centuries, and now you have the opportunity to journey through it one day at a time, gaining a deeper understanding of its profound wisdom and application in your life.

Higher Ground - the Sermon on the Mount

Set aside seven days to pray and reflect upon the wisdom and insight Jesus gave us through the Lord’s Prayer. It is the model for prayer that Jesus taught His disciples and that can bless and teach us today. This devotional will give you an insider’s understanding as to what our Heavenly Father desires for us. 

Discovering  the Lord’s Prayer

Your dream isn’t in the boat. It’s on the waves. God is calling you to step out. In this six-day plan, Jason Mendis walks us out onto the water, to the astonishing encounter between Peter and Jesus. Those who have water-walking faith are brave enough to launch into the unknown. They hear the voice of God. Acting on it, they fix their gaze on Jesus and trust Him. 

Water-Walking Faith

When my extended family gathered at my dying grandmother’s bedside, I was called on to lead us in prayer. I had no idea what to pray. Grandma was a follower of Jesus, but that made knowing how to pray only slightly easier. If you have ever found yourself not knowing how to pray, join us as we listen to The Master teach us what matters most in prayer.

Our Lord and His Prayer

Jesus Christ Crash Course (Part 2)

This week, explore the final days in the life of Christ. If you had one week to live, what would you do? Where would you go? Who would you see? The answers disclose the deepest values of someone’s heart and life. Spend seven days reflecting on the mission and priorities of our Lord and asking yourself if you live by the same. Let's head to the cross together. 

His Last Week

In the face of loss or fear, we might wonder how we could ever be joyful. Jesus told his disciples about eight key attitudes that lead to joy, no matter our circumstances. This passage in Matthew, called the Beatitudes, includes some of the most familiar but misunderstood verses in the Bible. These verses can teach us to experience a joy unlike any other!

Two Kingdoms - Part 3

It’s hard to describe what the kingdom of God is like, so Jesus makes comparisons to things we know, and contrasts his kingdom with the religious establishment. In our hearts we know what God is really like, but Jesus shows us with his life, and finally his death. But that’s not the end of the story…

This is where the Lord chooses to begin His disciples’ training with solid building blocks for a godly life.

Let God lead your heart as you read this powerful message. 

When You Pray.

Tony Evans gives you a book summary for each of the Gospels in this four-day reading plan, helping you to gain a broader understanding of this important section of the Bible. 

Overview Of The Gospels

Seeking A Prayerful Life

Mary & Joseph’s walk of obedience brought God’s deliverance for all men. Mary kept the promise of God her focus by surrounded herself with miracle believing people. Joseph's obedience was necessary for Mary’s promise to be fulfilled. 

Could your obedience be the door to someone else’s promise fulfilled?
Is God birthing a promise within you and are you stewarding it well? 
Will you obey no matter what the cost?

The Coming Promise

God wants you to be blessed. This exploration of the beatitudes will help you understand the characteristics that Jesus called "blessed" in the Sermon on the Mount and apply them in your life today. 

Understanding The Beatitudes

Practicing Righteousness—Giving, Prayer, Fasting, Money, and Anxiety. Jesus’ insistence that he did not come to abolish, but fulfil the law, is vital to understand the collected sayings of Matthew 5 through 7. That the law was interpreted through love—self-giving love—was a revolution that disturbed the religious authorities and amazed the common man and woman. A revolution begins.
