This is the first of a four part series of posts in which David Williams shares some historical and theological observations on the Bible passages studied at the Urbana Student Missions Conference 2015. The passages under consideration are Matthew 8:1-17, Matthew 20:1-16, Matthew 25:31-26, Matthew 27:57-28:15. In follow-up David will post stories of how the Gospel is being lived out on campus. We’d also love to hear how these texts speak to your campus context and next steps you’ll take as you share the Good News (in word and action as part of the people of God).
