Matthew 16:1-12 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in Matthew, where Jesus warns his disciples about the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Though the disciples have seen abundant and astounding miracles from their Rabbi time and time again, still they are prone to worry and carnal, shallow thinking. What comparisons can we as modern day believers draw in our own live?

Matthew 15:21-39 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, where Jesus continues healing and providing in amazing ways, training the crowds to look to Him for solutions to their problems.

Matthew 15:1-20 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues through Matthew, where we see yet again through the Pharisees' example that it is impossible to please God through legalistic keeping of the law. God is far more interested in our heart's attitude toward Him and our obedience to His Word through faith.

Matthew 14:22-36 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in Matthew, where Jesus tests the disciples by walking on water, again confirming that He is the Son of God. Much can be learned from Peter's attempt to walk on water, as it is strikingly similar to Eve's fall in the Garden.

Matthew 14:1-21 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues expositing the Gospel of Matthew, where Jesus performs an overwhelmingly sovereign and abundant miracle that should challenge our human proclivity toward worry.

Matthew 13:44-58 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, expositing a passage where Jesus describes the immense value of the Kingdom of Heaven. In light of this text, we must ask ourselves, "do we value the things of God above all else?" and "are we willing to part with everything in this world to pursue Him?"

Matthew 13:24-43 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, explaining a passage where Jesus addresses the visible and invisible church through parable. Although not all who participate in the body are God's children, the Lord has a sovereign plan for allowing wheat and the tares to grow together, and it is simply our job to remain faithful to Him.

Matthew 13:1-23 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, where Jesus uses parables to explain the Kingdom of God - the parable of the Sower.

Matthew 12:33-45 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, where Jesus emphasizes that who we really are is revealed by the fruit we produce. In much the same way as demons come back to places they know when they are restless, and Pharisees demand more signs in times of doubt, we often go back to the idols and the sins that we know when we are under pressure and dissatisfied with what God has handed to us. Yet we find that proof is actually not the cure for unbelief, belief is.

Matthew 12:15-32 - Listen as Pastor Doran Wray continues in the book of Matthew, where Jesus casts out a demon through the work of the Spirit. While the Pharisees commit the greatest form of blasphemy in attributing Christ's work to the Devil himself, Matthew exemplifies for us a proper view of Christ, looking beyond the content of Christ's miracles to focus on who the Son of Man really is- the fulfillment of prophesy and the sovereign authority over all things in heaven and earth.
