Come learn how Matthew focused on Jesus' presentation of the kingdom of God. Jesus taught that the kingdom is a set of heart attitudes that focus a person towards God and towards fellow man. His approach was to mentor people in the marketplace in these heart attitudes-fishermen, farmers, and businessmen, largely bypassing those who were religiously trained. He trained these leaders to embody His message of kingdom living and to pass it on to those around them.Jesus used the religious meeting places--synagogue and temple--to confront the religious leaders. His mentoring activities, validated with miraculous signs and wonders, were undertaken on the trail, in the marketplace, and in the home, the places where he expected his disciples to work as well.
