I’m your host, Wes McAdams. Here, we have one goal: Learn to love like Jesus. I want to start today by reading from Matthew 22, starting in verse 35: “One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?’ And he said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.'” <br> <br> <br> <br> Today our special guest is Boo Scott, who’s going to study with us about the book of Matthew. I hope you enjoy this study, and I hope, as always, it helps us all to learn to love like Jesus. <br> <br> <br> <br> WES: Boo Scott, welcome to the podcast.<br> <br> <br> <br> BOO: Thanks, Wes. Thanks for having me, Buddy.<br> <br> <br> <br> WES: Thanks so much for being here, Brother. I always enjoy spending time with you, and I appreciate the work that you’re doing in Hot Springs.

I did ministry in Hot Springs for quite a while, and so we know a lot of the same people and I know that you are blessing them, and it’s always great to know that people that you love are being blessed by other brothers and sisters in Christ, and I appreciate the way you and your family are blessing those good people there.<br> <br> <br> <br> BOO: Thanks, Wes. Yeah, man, we love them. We love it here, and we love you and your family and are so thankful for all the work that you do. I read your blog all the time, just so you know. <br> <br> <br> <br> WES: Oh, thanks. Thanks, Brother. Well, we’re continuing this series on what people are teaching and preaching, and just kind of catching up with preachers about what’s on their mind, so let’s get into what you’re studying, what you’re preaching and teaching lately.<br> <br> <br> <br> BOO: Yeah. I’ve been preaching over the Gospel according to Matthew. It is one of those gospels ‑‑ it’s my favorite gospel, by the way. I know a lot of people kind of gravitate towards John, which John is great,
