What is the Gospel?

Posted by: 235 days ago

Our Post-Christian culture loves spirituality but can be suspicious or ignorant of the historic-Christian faith. We prefer a do-it-yourself spirituality and a Jesus of our choosing to the good news offered in Scripture. Is there one gospel, or are there many? A panel of pastors and scholars shows us why we can trust our Bibles - and how to separate the doctrinal wheat from the chaff.

Posted by: 234 days ago

Christianity is today viewed as one of many spiritual options � and often with suspicion. How do followers of Christ respond in both word and deed?
