As we're about to head into the New Testament with our episode on Acts, we want to re-share with you the episodes that we recorded earlier this year of the four gospels. Today we have for you the Gospel of Matthew, and over the next couple of days, we will release again Mark, Luke, and John, if you want to get ahead and listen to them quickly, you can scroll back to February 3, March 10, April 21, and May 14, and you will find these episodes there.

We're also re-releasing them for you over the next couple of days so that they are at the top of your feed before we get to the Acts of the Apostles. We especially will commend to you our episode on the Gospel of Luke, but we want to give you all four. So, here we are with our episode on the Gospel of Matthew from February 3, 2025. Enjoy this back track.

On today's episode...

The first of our Gospel Bonus episodes featuring the Gospel of Matthew

Today we will learn:

  • When and where the Gospel of Matthew was (probably) written
  • How the Gospel of Matthew relates to the other three Gospels
  • What the word Gospel means and what it would have meant to the people this was first written for
  • Matthew’s audience for this Gospel and how we can tell
  • And we answer your Matthew questions!
