The need of the hour is for the church to hold passionately to historic Christian beliefs, as found in God’s word; to place the Bible as the ultimate authority in our lives; and to pursue Gospel living and sharing with energetic fervour.
We need to be Good News People.
Gavin and Phil invite you see what evangelicals have always been, and what we need to remember to be: committed to Jesus, the gospel, and hopefulness. Our churches and the world face big challenges – and the authors invite you to consider practical roadmaps to navigate our shifting culture.
With lessons from history, inspiration from Scripture, and the energy of Spirit-filled disciples, this is a book to inspire and encourage you as you seek to be good news where you live.
