OKAY THIS WEEK IS LUKE AND JOHN FOR SURE!!!

So this Sunday we WILL be finishing up talking about Luke and John's gospels and throwing in a little activity at the end and THEN we will begin Jesus stories and His character the following week.

HERE IS THE RECAP OF MATTHEW AND MARK FOR THOSE WHO NEED IT:

                 MATTHEW                                                                 MARK
Style:    He writes as a TEACHER                                          Writes like an action story teller

Goals:  To prove Jesus as Messiah                                         Shows Jesus is AWESOME! shows His ministry

To Whom:  To the Jewish                                                       Gentile/Roman 

Matthew has things such as genealogies, Old Testament cross references and background that educated Jewish people would be able to relate with and understand upon hearing.

Mark writes on behalf of Peter who actually knew Jesus and walked with Him. He writes with stories and physical things that Jesus did to show that He was the Son of God. Things that people (the gentiles) would be able to grasp and understand upon hearing.


SEE YOU SUNDAY!!
