Matthew, Discernment, and the Will of God: Exploring Lent through the Lens of the Book of Matthew

March 9 - April 13, 2025

This five-week Lenten journey explores the theme of God's will in the Gospel of Matthew, inviting participants to reflect on Jesus' teachings and actions. Beginning with an overview of God's will in Matthew, the course delves into the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus’ relationship with the Law, the parable of the lost sheep, and Jesus’ ultimate act of surrender in Gethsemane. Through these passages, we will engage in thoughtful discussion and reflection, deepening our understanding of discipleship and faithfulness during the Lenten season.
