The goal of the gospel is to produce a type of people consumed with passion for God an love for others.

Things like radical generosity and audacious faith are not produced when we focus on them, but when we focus on the gospel.

Worry springs from not being convinced of a sovereign God's absolute love for you. Worry disappears when you realize that God loves you unfailingly and will let nothing interrupt His plans for your good.

The gospel has done its work in us when we crave God more than we crave everything else in life - more than money, romance, family, health, fame - and when seeing His kingdom advance in the lives of others gives us more joy than anything we could own. When we see Jesus as greater than anything the world can offer, we'll gladly let everything else go to possess Him.

As we see the beauty of God and feel His weightiness in our hearts, our hearts begin to desire Him more than we desire sin. Before the Bible says,"Stop sinning", it says,"Behold your God".

Being able to articulate the gospel with accuracy is one thing; having its truth captivate your soul is quite another.

Gospel change is the Spirit of God using the story of God to make the beauty of God come alive in our hearts
