Quotes from Gospel Fluency

Have we separated our theology from practical day to day living? Do we really believe the gospel is the answer to every problem we face?  The answer to these questions is addressed in Gospel Fluency by Jeff Vanderstelt.  Additional resources are available through his website SaturateTheWorld.com

Below you will quotes from the end of the book:

Growth in gospel fluency required regularly being with others who know and love Jesus, speak about him often, and commit together to regularly remind one another of the gospel when they forget.

the whole Bible is the gospel--the good news that God has come to rescue and restore humanity and all creation in and through the person and work of Jesus Christ.


Jesus won't be the hero of the story if we don't really need a Savior for our sin.

My regular counsel to Christians these days is to spend more time listening than talking if they want to be able to share the gospel of Jesus in a way that meaningfully speaks to the hearts of others.

Whenever I am engaging in a conversation with someone, I ask the Holy Spirit to help me.

In many cases, we try to earn our own atonement by trying to be better, work harder, or promise never to do it again. But that leads to other forms of destruction, such as perfectionism, workaholism, manipulation, and pride, or devastation and depression when we fail.

Wisdom is knowledge applied so that we do the right thing, at the right time, with the right motive, in the right way.
