Matthew has told us what the kingdom looks like from the inside. Now he shows what the King can do. Matthew 8–10 moves from the Sermon on the Mount to a rapid series of miracles — over leprosy, paralysis, storms, demons, and death itself — while pressing harder and harder on a single question: who is this man, and what will you do with him?
This study guide walks verse by verse through Matthew 8–10, covering the healing miracles, the call of Matthew, the new wine and old wineskins teaching, the commissioning of the Twelve, and Jesus' unflinching description of the cost of following him. Each chapter includes commentary written from a restoration movement perspective, with attention to what the original audience would have understood and what it demands of us today.
Includes study questions after every chapter — observation, interpretation, application, and group discussion — designed for use in weekly small groups or individual study. AI-powered prompts at the end of every chapter with clickable links to Claude and ChatGPT in the digital version. Available in print (8.5×11, binder-ready) and digital (6×9, phone-optimized) formats. Part 2 of a five-part series through the complete Gospel of Matthew.
