What does the Gospel of Matthew say to us today?
How does lectio divina move us to pray with Scripture?

The evangelist Matthew writes to a Jewish-Christian audience and teaches us that Christ fulfills the promises of the Old Testament. The inheritance of the Messiah belonged to the Israelite people; however, many Jews didn't recognize Jesus, which is why Gentiles made up a large portion of the early Christian converts.

Unlike most Old Testament books, the Wisdom Books don't relate scenes from Israel's history. Instead, these sayings, songs, and poems show us how to understand and deal with everyday problems through the lens of faith. From the suffering of Job, to the pragmatic proverbs, to the vanity of all things and the intimate love of God, these books spiritually nourish and instruct God's people how to live well and in accord with one another and all creation. Guided by the Spirit, all can learn to know, love, and fear the Lord.

Paul's encouragement, his advice for faithful living, and...

After the resurrection and ascension of Jesus, the Christian message began to spread to areas outside of Jerusalem. The gospel of Luke addresses Jesus' message of salvation to all of humanity.

Rev. Anderson asserts that though this gospel addresses all humanity, we will find in God's Word here that Luke has a special concern for all outcasts: "the poor, the sick, sinners, women, foreigners, and conquerors. He writes a gospel filled with compassion and mercy for the downtrodden."

Jesus' message is also for the whole of our being: physical, emotional, and spiritual. With Rev. Anderson,...
