066. Our Living Hope | Studies in 1 Peter Part 9: The Gospel Brings Us Hope

1 Peter 1:18-21

The ‘Gospel’ seems overused and trite today after it has been featured in the titles of so many mini movements and become a rallying cry in some Christian circles. Many are understandably confused as to what the gospel actually means due to its overuse and misuse. In some cases, the word has been used to mean almost anything. But the Bible gives us a clear look into the original meaning of this word/concept, and we would do well to review the message of the gospel so that we can minister it to others. Thankfully, the influence of the gospel does not lie with us, but in the power of the message itself. It is my hope that, in thinking on the gospel, we will become more motivated to share it with others in God’s strength.
