The Gospel Of Matthew Part One
​A Four-Week Online Bible Study
The Gospel of Matthew Part One is a four-week Bible Study covering Chapters 1-16 of the Gospel. The Study focuses on one of the themes of this Gospel: Jesus as Emmanuel or God-with-Us. Throughout the Gospel, again and again, we will see evidence that Jesus indeed, is God-with-Us, walking with us and revealing God’s love for us throughout every morning of our lives. Jesus is with us through everything, the bad, the good, and the ordinary.
