The gospel is the good news of what Jesus Christ has done to save us and restore us into right relationship with God. For many Christians, however, the assumption is that the gospel is for the unbeliever, a set of “ABC” basics that enable people to enter into the kingdom of God.
Paul’s letter to the Galatians powerfully reminds us that the gospel is not just for the unbeliever, but for the believer as well. It’s not just the “ABC” basics, but the A to Z of the Christian life. It’s not just how the kingdom of God is entered, but how life takes place within it.
Gospel Life is a series of messages devoted to understanding how the good news of Jesus Christ shapes the life of his people from beginning to end. It’s never something the Christian can move on from, rather it is what the Christian life is always moving through.
