What is the gospel? Bryan Chapell explains that the gospel is the message that God sent a savior to rescue broken people, restore creation’s glory, and rule over all with compassion and justice. This new booklet from the Gospel Coalition examines the gospel’s proclamation that the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ provides for those who believe all that God requires and leads to eternal life.

It's not enough to plant individual churches in isolation from each other. The spiritual need and opportunity of our cities is too big for any one church to meet alone. Pastors Neil Powell and John James contend that to truly transform a city, the gospel compels us to create localized, collaborative church planting movements. They share lessons learned and principles discovered from their experiences leading a successful citywide movement. The more willing we are to collaborate across denominations and networks, the more effectively we will reach our communities for Jesus.

A pastor outlines the relationship between the gospel and all of Scripture and suggests helpful strategies for reading and interpreting the Bible correctly.

In this new booklet from the Gospel Coalition, Mike Bullmore brings clarity to the relationship between the gospel and all of Scripture.

Diese Frage stellt der Apostel Paulus in seinem Brief an die Gemeinde in Korinth. Ihm geht es nicht um äußere Anpassung, sondern um eine tiefgreifende Erneuerung unseres Wesens – eine Veränderung, die von innen heraus geschieht.

In diesem kompakten Buch zeigt Bestsellerautor Timothy Keller, wie die Gute Nachricht von Christus uns von der ständigen Ich-Zentrierung befreit.
