Sermons on Rooted In Gospel:

The Burden For The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 28, 2018

Paul had a convicting burden for the Gospel that compelled him to preach and share the good news. Every believer should share that burden. Are we burdened for the Gospel, compelled to share?

The Burden for the Gospel 1 Corinthians 9:16 As we continue our series, A Gospel Centered Life, I want to address the need for a proper burden concerning the Gospel. In my estimation, our text reveals one of the most convicting, compelling, and honest statements the apostle Paul ever made. In ...read more

The Gospel In A Nutshell

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 3, 2018

THE GOSPEL IN A NUTSHELL. John 3:16. This Bible verse has been called ‘the Gospel in a nutshell’, because it presents the central theme of Christianity. It consists in a chain of five links, leading from God’s love to our eternal life: 1. God’s love 2. The gift of God’s Son 3. Christ’s ...read more

The Beauty In The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 4, 2018

Paul's life was shaped by the Gospel. Even in the face of an uncertain future and difficulty, he embraced change in life through the power of the Gospel. That is the beauty in the Gospel.

The Beauty in the Gospel Acts 20: 24-27 Our text today finds the apostle Paul on his way to Jerusalem. He is well aware of the animosity of the Jews toward him, and quite uncertain what his future will hold once he arrives.

The Bond With The Gospel Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 11, 2018

The Bond with the Gospel Philippians 1: 27-30 For the past few weeks we have been considering the impact of the Gospel in our lives and the challenge of allowing the Gospel to be central in our lives.

The Gospel Is At Stake Series

Contributed by Donald Mcculley on Aug 7, 2019

The following sermon briefs are a collection of discourses and devotionals taken from the book of Galatians. Some of the outlines and thoughts were borrowed from other sources. This is not an expository work – that is a verse-by-verse study but as the title reads, just some gleanings.

INTRODUCTION: Have you ever written a letter to someone when you were upset? I thought so. Paul did too. When he wrote the Galatian letter, he was beside himself. One writer said, “Paul writes with heat; his language flows like molten lava…He scolds, he pleads, he denounces, he exhorts, he ...read more

The Stewardship Of The Gospel

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019

This morning I would like to start on a fairly major project. We are going to start a sermon series from the New Testament book of Ephesians. Its only 6 chapters long, but there is so much in it that it could easily take us 6 months to complete. I love the Bible, and to see the Bible's ...read more

The Gospel Of The Saints

Closing this amazing chapter, Peter emphasized the importance and great significance of the Gospel. Not only does faith in the Gospel lead unto salvation, but the Gospel should continue to shape and guide our lives.

The Ingredients Of The Gospel Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 16, 2021

No Other Gospel

Contributed by Paul Arnold on Apr 23, 2018

What is the Good News? Paul is clear that there is no substitute for the real thing: Jesus Christ.

Beginning of a series… Paul had previous form in Galatia: he had been through Galatia on three separate missionary journeys. In fact, Acts 14:8-18 describes one such journey through Galatia when Paul and Barnabas were mistaken for Gods. These were people who were eager to receive God’s Good ...read more

The Glory Of The Gospel.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2024

THE GLORY OF THE GOSPEL. 2 Corinthians 3:4-9. Paul is confident that the Corinthians ARE his letters of recommendation (cf. 2 Corinthians 3:2).

The Gospel Of The Kingdom

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 23, 2024

As you consider the life and ministry of Jesus, what comes to mind? What was His purpose for coming to the earth? He came with purpose – a purpose ordained of God, the Father before the foundation of the world.
