The Apostles Preaching the Gospel by Gustav DoreYes, we are still celebrating the gospel.

Kim of Hiraeth quotes one of the great reformers on God’s kindness in Christ.

Dorothy of Field Stone Cottage quotes a contemporary teacher on the preliminary lesson that must be learned before we can grasp the whole of the good news of the gospel.

I’ve been quoting, too. I’ve quoted Horatius Bonar on The Glorious Spectacle of All Things Done. I’ve also recommended some gospel listening to fill your weekend with gospel reflection.

Update: Here’s one you must read: John of While We Sojourn shares Lessons Learned from my Papaw.

At Rebecca Writes, we’re celebrating the gospel during the month of October. Twice a week, at least, I’ll be posting something pertaining to the gospel, which, in a nutshell is the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sin and was raised from the dead, so that through faith, we are united with Christ and receive every blessing merited by his work. Still not sure what the gospel is? There are a few links in this post that might help.

As always, you are invited to participate with me. On Tuesdays and Fridays throughout the month, I’ll post a collection of links to gospel related posts. If you post a quote, verse, poem, story, book review, or essay, etc. on a subject connected in some way to the gospel, send me an email with your link (You’ll find the address by clicking the contact button in the sidebar.) and I’ll link back to your post (or posts) on the next Tuesday or Friday. There are no limits, really, on the form or number of your post, just the subject. You may want to to contribute a link to a post on someone else’s post, too, and that’s okay by me.

I’ll be posting the next round up of gospel themed posts will be Tuesday, October 28.
