I have some good news!
Too often, the Gospel gets reduced to “fire insurance” — a ticket out of judgment. But the Good News of Jesus is far richer than that. The robust Gospel is the fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham: redemption and restoration for all who submit to Christ, bringing us back into the shalom of God. This shalom isn’t just the absence of conflict — it’s justice, wholeness, and life the way it was always meant to be.
The robust Gospel calls us to sow hope into the lives of others. It moves us beyond making ourselves the hero of the story, beyond a shallow forgiveness that ignores love, beyond covenant privilege without kingdom responsibility. It recenters everything on Jesus.
This means we listen well, engage cultures with humility, and live vulnerably among others — not as salespeople, but as witnesses who embody Christ’s love and justice. The robust Gospel is not about power, but about presence. It’s about Jesus living through us.
Join me in this episode of “I Have Some Good News!” as we unpack what it means to live, share, and embody the robust Gospel.
