Three Months with Matthew

Translated by the author, this week-by-week study offers a profound message for readers in simple, easy-to-understand language. Includes 13 detailed Bible studies with daily readings. The study is divided into three sections: See (observations), Judge (historical context), Act (reflection). Journaling is encouraged and a small group study section appears at the end of each week. These Bible studies can be used for Sunday school, for evening Bible study, for home study meetings, for faith communities, for retreats, and for personal Bible study. This book can even be used as a daily Bible study, as each lesson is divided into seven parts.
