"Is Jesus Christ king of your life?" The Gospel of Matthew challenges us with this most crucial and life-changing question. Matthew's gospel, from start to finish, reminds us that Jesus is much more than a carpenter. Jesus is our King! And the more we begin to relinquish control of our lives to Him, the more we experience the blessings of God's Kingdom today.Being an authentic Christian is not about wearing Christian jewelry or having a fish symbol on your car. Instead, it is defined by a life that reflects the relationship you have with Jesus Christ your King. With Jesus at the center of your life, there is no stopping what He will do for you every day. Imagine the woman you will become when you allow Jesus to reign in your life. Your study of the Gospel of Matthew will help you build an authentic relationship with Jesus that will be a blessing to you and everyone around you.Matthew: The Authentic Woman is a workbook style Bible study. Each session offers insightful background and thoughtful, personal reflections to help women understand the text and recognize how it directly relates to their daily lives. Using the acronym of F.A.I.T.H. women will: Focus on the passage, Admit where they are, Interpret the passage, Take the passage into their lives and Hear from God. After working through the workbook through the week, you can then meet together with other women in an environment of warmth and openness to learn and grow from each other's insights and discoveries.About Faith Journey Bible Studies:Something unique happens when women study, share and serve together in neighborhood-based groups. This study is written to encourage you to invite women you see everyday-the ones you naturally connect with at your kid's school, the grocery store, gym or walking in the neighborhood-to join you on your faith journey. Keeping in mind that these women come from many faith backgrounds, Hebrews: The Faithful Woman, like all of our Faith Journey studies, is written to inspire and encourage their unique faith journeys through open, friendly conversation about the Bible, Jesus and daily life. Our prayer is that you will grow closer to the God of the universe and discover His love for you as you invest time studying His word with a group of women who are growing in their commitment to each other and to the. Lord. To learn more about starting a neighborhood Faith Journey group, or to post your neighborhood group on our site, visit us at www.FaithJouneyBibleStudies.com.
