Who We Are Part 1

1 Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

The Gospel is Personal
The Gospel is Historical
The Gospel is Physical

“Our ultimate hope as Christians isn’t evacuation from this earth but the restoration of this earth… Contrary to popular belief, we won’t be floating around playing golden harps with chubby angels. We’ll be running and working and playing and singing and laughing and resting and reveling in the endless wonders of our good and beautiful God.”-Matt Smethurst

The Gospel is Central
