Throughout history Matthew's gospel has played a prominent role in Christian worship and practice, and to this day it retains a central place in most people's experiences of the New Testament and the Christian faith. Matthew's gospel speaks well to church communities today, identifying the church as founded by Jesus (16:18) and issuing practical instructions for practicing community (18:1-35). Matthew envisions the church as made up of sinners and doubters who struggle with faith, temptation, and forgiveness, but ultimately reflect the ministry and presence of Jesus
