Evangelism, the Gospel, and Renewal

Series · 5 parts

Recovering the full gospel for evangelism in a post-Christian culture, and what past revivals teach us about renewal today.

By Jordan Elder

  1. Part 1

    Evangelism in a Post-Christian West

    The West is growing post-Christian, and much of our evangelism has lost the gospel in the fog. In this problem, there is opportunity.

  2. Part 2

    The Gospel in Three Dimensions

    Recovering the gospel as biblical, historical, and salvific, and seeing its saving power in three dimensions: personal, relational, and societal.

  3. Part 3

    Working Out the Gospel in a Church Plant

    How big the gospel is in our lives shapes how big the church is. How we’re working out the gospel in 3D in a church-planting context.

  4. Part 4

    Lessons from the Wesleyan Revival

    What the Wesleyan Revival teaches us about renewal in a season of cultural upheaval and a slumbering church.

  5. Part 5

    Hope for the Next Wave of Renewal

    What God did in my own heart through a year of reading on the gospel and past revivals, and why I’m hopeful the next wave of renewal is gathering.
