Product Information

Under the direction of John Benjamin Hickey, it feels strangely like Parker and Broderick are saying lines rather than assuming roles.

The discourse is a set of parables emphasizing the sovereignty of God, and concluding with a challenge to the disciples to understand the teachings as scribes of the Kingdom of Heaven. At the end of the discourse, Matthew notes that Jesus has finished all his words, and attention turns to the crucifixion. This concern lies behind the frequent citations of Jewish scripture, the evocation of Jesus as the new Moses along with other events from Jewish history, and the concern to present Jesus as fulfilling, not destroying, the Law.

I have prayed much over this book, and worked hard to put it together, so I do hope you will find it helpful. I pray that this book will prove to be the means of leading some to a genuine encounter with Jesus and a living Christian faith.

The last scenario features a couple whose daughter has barricaded herself into the bathroom on her wedding day, and who are desperate to get her up the aisle. Matthew avoids using the holy word God in the expression "Kingdom of God"; instead he prefers the term "Kingdom of Heaven", reflecting the Jewish tradition of not speaking the name of God).
