DESCRIPTION
The world tries to define us in different ways. We try to define ourselves one way or another. Just who are we really and how does God define us?
The Gospel of Matthew was written to a group of Christians who did not know who they were exactly. They were faithful Jews in the synagogue community in Galilee who had found the Messiah. Jesus had changed everything in the world which they have lived so comfortably in but now, how should they think of themselves now, as Jewish or Christian?
Follow Michael Card as he explains the reason why Matthew needed to write his Gospel to help his readers define their new identity as followers of Jesus the Messiah. He also unpacks how Matthew's emphasis on fulfillment confirms their Jewish connection to the Torah, while his focus on the kingdom helps them understand their new identities in Christ.
Matthew presents this process of redefinition as an exercise of the imagination, in which Jesus reshapes who we are in light of who He is. Come alongside Matthew in this pilgrimage, and discover how your new identity in Christ fulfills all that you are meant to be.
