The Gospel-Shaped Life

by Ian Hamilton

Gospel means ‘good news’. It is good news from God, about his Son Jesus Christ, for a world of perishing sinners, offering eternal life as a free gift, to be received by faith alone (John 3:16). But the gospel does so much more than rescue us from hell and save us for heaven.
