Welcome back to Starting Place! Today, we’re kicking off a mini-series on why you still need the gospel—even if you've been a Christian for years.
It’s easy to become overly familiar with Christianity, knowing all the right things to say but forgetting the basics. The gospel isn’t just the starting point of our faith—it’s the foundation we always need.
Main Topics Covered:
✔️ What the gospel really is: not just about forgiveness, but fellowship with God
✔️ Why we slip into earning God’s favor instead of trusting His grace
✔️ How the entire Bible tells the gospel story—from creation to restoration
Recommended Resources:
This series is inspired by my new Galatians study, Live Free—pre-order now at Lifeway.com/LiveFree!
