On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson take up some of the topics that appear during the Season of Pentecost in Year A's selections from Matthew's gospel. Specifically, they discuss the preaching office and the calling of the disciples to proclaim the gospel to the world. Though Matthew's gospel has been misunderstood in this regard, a proper view of the preaching office emerges from the proper distinction of law and gospel, and the centrality of promise and suffering to the task of the preacher.
