What is "Gospel-centered"?


Listen Later

In this episode, Aldo Leon exposes the misuse and abuse of the term gospel-centered in the evangelical world. He argues that many people claim to be gospel-centered, but in reality they are not. He shows how the gospel is often reduced to a slogan, a formula, or a technique, rather than a comprehensive and glorious truth that shapes our whole lives.

He then clarifies what gospel-centered means and why it matters. He says that being gospel-centered means living in light of the person and work of Jesus Christ, who is the center of God's redemptive plan and history. Some of the points he makes are:

  • The term gospel-centered is often used as a "buzzword" or a "badge" without understanding its meaning and implications.
  • Being gospel-centered means living in light of the person and work of Jesus Christ, who is the fulfillment of all God's promises and purposes.
  • Being gospel-centered means applying the gospel to every aspect of our lives, such as our identity, worship, mission, relationships, and ethics.
  • Being gospel-centered means avoiding the pitfalls of legalism, moralism, and pragmatism that can distort the gospel and rob us of its power and joy.

Listen to this episode to discover the beauty and power of the gospel and how it can transform you and your ministry.
