These qualities come together in this helpful handbook, which, while probing the Greek text at an accessible level, helps preachers communicate powerfully and accurately key passages of Matthew’s Gospel. Highly recommended!”

“Would you like to preach or teach a fourteen-week series on some of the most important passages in the Gospel of Matthew, with all Greek words parsed and analyzed, succinct explanations given of more puzzling or controversial parts of the text, key talking points for conversation, and a potential big idea to unify your sermon or lesson? Dan Gurtner offers a reliable ready-made guide. Better yet, would you like to preach or teach through all parts or all major parts of the Gospel without having everything force-fed to you?
