And yet, they aren’t about cultural renewal or political upheaval, but about personal salvation from God’s judgment. Listen as Pastor Josh explains how these verses reveal the gospel as the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.

What does faith look like? Our culture simply defines it as belief in a higher power. It speaks of “faith leaders” and “faith communities” full of people who “practice their faith”. But the Bible speaks of something more. It speaks of a dynamic faith produced by the gospel that is visible, community-shaping, and world-changing. Listen as Pastor Josh teaches on the difference that the gospel makes to our faith.
