This is the podcast, Audio the Matters, where I take the ancient truth of God's Word, explain it, and show how it is relevant for today. I blog. I write. I eBook. I am currently undertaking another doctorate where I am researching the work of C.S. Lewis in regard to his theological contribution to our understanding of the imago Dei.
The Matthew Project, Part 13 - The Crux of the Gospel
Each of the four Gospels climax in the crucifixion of Christ. The surprising thing each of the crucifixion accounts is how concise they considering how profoundly cosmic its ramifications are.

The Matthew Project, Part 12 - Doing Holy Communion the Rite Way
Each of the Synoptic Gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke, describe the Last Supper of Christ with His disciples in which He established the rite of Holy Communion which is also referred to as 'the Lord's Supper' (not to be confused with 'the Lord's Table' which is a status).
Different Church traditions generally view this rite differently. For Roman Catholics it is a sacrament. For many Protestants it is an Ordinance. For some it is simply a Memorial. In this Podcast I discuss these different perspectives and offer some reflections from each of the four Gospel accounts. I then show how the early Christians regarded water baptism as a necessary step of discipleship in order to qualify to partake of Holy Communion.
Please give this podcast a 5-star rating and please leave a kind review on whichever podcast player you use to listen to this.

The Matthew Project, Part 11 - The Transfiguration of Christ
In this episode through the major themes of the Gospel of Matthew, we now arrive at what many scholars believe is the penultimate message of the Gospel of Matthew. In the transfiguration of Christ, which each synoptic Gospel places in its climax, just before the account of Christ going to the Cross, we are given a glimpse of the eternal glory of Christ as He takes Peter, James and John up Mount Hermon where Moses and Elijah appear to Him to encourage Him on His mission to the Cross. It is the clearest vision of the eternal glory of Christ that any of the New Testament's non-apocalyptic books give us.
Be sure to also visit my YouTube channel as I do regular short videos through Matthew as well and where you will shortly find my extended teaching on why the transfiguration so powerfully captured the beatific vision of so many of the early Church Fathers.
