God Is Good is a spiritual guide that walks readers through the Gospel of Matthew and emphasizes that the Gospel is a truth meant to remake the heart. Why was this an important book for you to write?

God Is Good, Simply the Gospel of Jesus Christ wasn’t something I wrote to fill pages — it was something I wrote because the Gospel had already filled me. Matthew kept pressing on my heart with one unshakable truth: Jesus doesn’t come to improve people; He comes to remake them. And I realized how many believers were living with a version of Christianity that was busy, complicated, or inherited — but not transforming. I wrote this book because the Gospel changed me, and I wanted to give people a clear, Scripture-rooted path to encounter Jesus in a way that changes their hearts.

Why did you choose the Gospel of Matthew specifically as the foundation for this book?

I chose Matthew because it’s the Gospel that refuses to let the reader stay on the surface. Matthew forces you to see Jesus as King, Messiah, Teacher, and Savior all at once — and that combination is exactly what the book is trying to restore in people’s hearts. In addition, Matthew gives the clearest, most structured picture of Jesus’ identity and mission, and I wanted a foundation that would lead readers into transformation, not just information.

In discussing the wise men, you gently challenge common assumptions. Why was it important to address those details?

The “small” details aren’t actually small — they shape how people see Scripture, how they imagine Jesus, and how they understand the reliability of the Gospel. I addressed the assumptions about the wise men because I’m not just telling a story; I’m helping readers build a truer, cleaner, more faithful picture of the Gospel. Correcting the details isn’t about being picky — it’s about protecting the integrity of the Gospel and helping people fall in love with the real Jesus, not a cultural version of Him.

Who do you most hope will pick up this book, and what do you hope it does for them?

I wrote God Is Good, Simply the Gospel of Jesus Christ, with a very specific reader in mind — not a demographic, but a heart condition. The people I most hope will pick it up are the ones who are hungry, hurting, searching, or simply tired of surface‑level faith. And what I want for them is nothing less than a fresh encounter with Jesus through the Gospel of Matthew. I hope this book finds anyone who wants to see Jesus clearly again — or maybe for the first time — and I want it to steady them, awaken them, and remake their heart through the truth of the Gospel.
