Message Minute (The Power of the Gospel)

Many Christians think they've graduated from the Gospel, viewing it as just the entry point to faith. But the Gospel isn't just the ABCs of Christianity—it's the A to Z. It's not just what saves us; it's what sustains and transforms us. Every sin struggle, every challenge, every area where we need growth ultimately points back to our need to trust more deeply in the finished work of Christ. The Gospel reminds us that we're not changed by guilt or shame but by gratitude for what Jesus has done. When we fix our eyes on His perfect life credited to us, His death that removes our guilt, and His resurrection that gives us power to overcome sin, we're motivated by love rather than fear.

Verse: "Let me now remind you, dear brothers and sisters, of the Good News I preached to you before. You welcomed it then, and you still stand firm in it." - 1 Corinthians 15:1

Reflection Question: How might your current struggles look different if viewed through the lens of the Gospel?

Prayer: Father, thank You for the Gospel—not just as the door to salvation but as the key to transformation. Help me to never "graduate" from the Good News but to let it shape every aspect of my life. May Your grace be what motivates and changes me. Amen.
