THE WORDS OF JESUS
From the Book of Matthew
Our rabbi is speaking.
It’s one thing to say we follow Jesus. It’s another thing to sit with what he actually said long enough for it to unsettle us.
The Words of Jesus: From the Book of Matthew gathers 93 sayings from our rabbi and places them in front of us without rushing to resolve the tension. These words reveal what Jesus believed about God, life, and the human soul—and invite us to wrestle with the places where his way confronts our assumptions, exposes what is forming us, and calls us toward a different kind of life.
