What is the gospel β€” and why does it still matter? In this week's message, Pastor Lawrence opens a powerful new series through the book of Romans, beginning in Romans 1:1-17. From Paul's dramatic transformation to the unifying power of the gospel, this message lays the foundation for an awakening in your life and community.


In This Episode

  • What the gospel actually is (and why it's different from religion)
  • Paul's dramatic transformation from Saul the Pharisee to Paul the servant
  • Why the gospel is the most inclusive message in history
  • How the gospel breaks down "us vs. them" thinking
  • Why Paul says he is "not ashamed of the gospel" β€” and why you shouldn't be either


Key Scriptures

Romans 1:1-17 (ESV) | 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (NIV) | John 3:16-18 (ESV) | 2 Peter 3:14-16 (NIV)


Key Quote
