Having dived deep into each of the four Gospels in the New Testament, our final episode considers what The Gospel of Jesus Christ means for sharing it. Prominent and passionate evangelist Sam Chan discusses the ways we can summarise The Gospel. He also raises how Jesus adapted the way he delivered the good news to those he was engaging with so, perhaps we should too, then.

Welcome to The Gospel According to the Gospels. The gospel of Jesus Christ is well known and widespread. But what EXACTLY is The Gospel? Can you boil it down to 25 words or less, or do you need whole chapters? Is it just one thing Jesus - or MORE – from sacrifice to salvation, forgiveness to forever? Around the world, in different times and places, the gospel actually seems to be different. Or have a particular focus. Emphasis. Outcome. So, do we really know what the gospel is? Using the four biographies of Jesus in the New Testament, we will together explore The Gospel - according to the Gospels. Each episode, a different expert will guide us through one of the Gospels, or a related theme, to galvanise our grip on the gospel of Jesus Christ. To inspire us to love and cling to it more and more and more.
