Introductory message on the Gospel Culture series from Pastor Richard van Lieshout.
To be a thriving Christian Community, we need both Gospel Doctrine and Gospel Culture. Unless the truth of the Gospel is evident in a Gospel Culture, the witness of the church will lack power and tend towards either hypocrisy (where there is sound doctrine but no cultural transformation) or fragility (where there is cultural transformation but no doctrinal foundation).
Gospel Culture is when our doctrinal faith becomes evident in the way we live.

Galatians 2:21- The fact that Christ had to die to save us means that we are utterly incapable of saving ourselves. Christmas is not merely about Jesus coming into the world as a baby Christmas is about Jesus coming into the world as a saviour! And he saves us by dying for us- the ultimate reason for his birth. Christmas cannot be celebrated in isolation- we must celebrate Christmas in the light of Easter.

…for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus (Galatians 6:17) Branded by the Bible Who do we really believe? Branded by Christs Death for us How do I really get right with God? Branded By Christs life in us How do we live for him?
