What Is the Gospel?

You've probably heard the word "Gospel" before, but what does it mean and why does it matter?
The gospel is centered on the life, death, resurrection, and exaltation of Jesus Christ. The gospel is the message that we are saved from our sins and reconciled to God through faith in Jesus Christ, who died for our sins and rose again, proving His victory over sin and death. This message is not just the entrance into the Christian life but the entirety of it, shaping and empowering every aspect of living in relationship with God. The gospel is the foundation of Christian joy, hope, and love, inviting people into a transformative relationship with God through Christ.
The gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ and God's plan for salvation & it matters because this good news changes everything!
