"Can We Trust Jesus?" is a family advent resource that traces the Gospel of Matthew as he sought to help us see who Jesus really was and is. The journey helps us see how Jesus fulfilled Old Testament prophecy as told by Matthew and engages the family with challenging questions and learning activities to tackle together. This is a life-changing book for the whole family. Learning from Matthew is vital for Christians since he, like us, was broken and needed fixing.
Matthew had seen Jesus in person, and he wrote down all his experiences to help us see the evidence Jesus provided for all his claims. Matthew reminds us of the predictions that God gave through the prophets of the past. He also told us that those predictions and promises came true in the life of Jesus.
Here is the map of the spiritual adventure in this book:
Leg One—He Arrives! (Days 1–4)
Leg Two—He Has a Message (Days 5–9)
Leg Three—He Is Different than Expected (Days 10–14)
Leg Four—He Is Rejected (Days 15–19)
Leg Five—He Is Not Done (Days 20–24)
Each day offers the time to look back to what the prophets foretold and how it was fulfilled through Jesus. Then, there is always space for some family time to reflect on how each step of the journey is important to our lives today.
