We live in a world where ‘good news’ usually means your phone finally connected to Wi-Fi. But the Gospel is the original good news—and it’s far more life-changing than a strong signal.

Abraham Lincoln read it to cure his blues, and President Bush proclaimed it publicly to calm our nation’s fears after 9-11. I read these words out loud a week ago ...read more
