This the first volume in a series compiling New Testament expository sermons by Pastor Dana Bratton as preached at Calvary Chapel at the Bridge in Phuket, Thailand. Useful for devotional study, sermons, and Bible studies. Lots of simple practical explanation and application. This is an evangelistic exposition and verse by verse study of the gospel of Matthew chapters 1-14 with the ESV or NASB scripture included in the text followed by commentary and there are quotations from David Guzik, John MacArthur, J. Vernon McGee, Chuck Smith, and Warren Wiersbe. I pray that the messages will be a blessing to you. We preach and teach to \"equip the saints for the work of the ministry,\" to effect life change, to edify and encourage and to magnify the Lord. So that \"every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord.\"
