Resources |

Simply listening to sermons or reading books is not the same as following Jesus. It is possible to know much about God without knowing God. With that said, however, reading and listening to godly brothers who are farther along the path can encourage us to follow hard after Christ. We hope these resources will be a blessing to you.

The Gospel

Why is it important to study the Gospel? Doesn’t every believer already understand the Gospel? Every Christian has repented and believed the Gospel. It is simple enough for a small child to understand, and yet we should always be growing in our understanding of the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. As we increasingly see what Christ has done for us, it will cause us to worship Him. And as we understand the cross and the Gospel more clearly, it will preserve us from the many false gospels being preached in our day. We trust these resources will be a blessing to you.
