This new edition contains the first section of Centre Church in an easy-to-read format with new reflections and additional essays from Timothy Keller and several other contributors. Keller addresses several current conflicts about the nature of the gospel and shows how faithful gospel preaching leads to individual and corporate renewal.
It is easy to assume that if we understand the gospel and preach it faithfully, our ministry will necessarily be shaped by it-but this is not true. Many churches claim to be gospel-centered but do not have a ministry that is shaped by, centered on, and empowered through the gospel. The implications of the gospel have not yet worked their way into the fabric of how that church does ministry.
Gospel-centered ministry is more theologically driven than program driven. To pursue it, we must spend time reflecting on the essence, the truths, and the very patterns of the gospel itself. The gospel is neither religion nor irreligion, but something else entirely-a third way of relating to God through grace. In *Gospel-Centered Church,* bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller addresses several current discussion and conflicts about the nature of the gospel and shows how faithful preaching of the gospel leads to individual and corporate renewal.

Important read for church leaders
Keller bring much clarity to the gospel, especially in context of the church and its ministries. Particularly helpful was Keller's articulation of 'three ways to live' as a means of differentiating gospel shaped living from irreligion and religion. Horton and Ortlund's reflections greatly extended the discussion on gospel theology and gospel renewal. I'd recommend this as a essential reading for church leaders.
