Summary

Welcome to the Gospel in a Year on the Catholic Sprouts Podcast. This year we will walk together through all 4 Gospels.

We will be reading the Gospels as they appear in the Bible, so that means we are starting with Mathew! Before we begin reading from the Gospel, we are going to spend this week understanding the author, audience, and themes in Matthew's Gospel.

n this episode you will learn how Matthew looks to the Old Testament to show his Jewish audience that Jesus is the Messiah who is ushering in the Kingdom of Heaven.

To get the most out of this journey through the Gospels, we suggest you do the following two things to prepare:

1 PRINT THE GOSPEL IN A YEAR NOTEBOOK. It's free and ready for you right here --> http://catholicsprouts.com/the-gospels-in-a-year-on-the-catholic-sprouts-podcast

2 LOCATE A BIBLE! We will be reading from the New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE), so that is the best translation to follow along with for young Catholics. However, if you have older Catholics, it's fun to follow along in another great Catholic translation (we recommend either the Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition (RSV-CE) and the New Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition (NRSV-CE)).

Thank you for joining us!

Come Lord Jesus!
