A two-part guide to the bad news and the good news at the heart of the gospel — sin and its real consequences, then God's answer in Christ.
Before "hear and believe" mean anything, a person has to understand what they're actually hearing and believing — the real weight of sin and its consequences, and the real weight of God's answer to it. This guide is built in two parts around exactly that.
Part One covers the problem honestly: what sin actually is, why it separates a person from God, and the real consequences Scripture attaches to it without softening the message. Part Two covers the solution: God's plan in Christ, the cross as God's answer to the problem just laid out, and what it means to genuinely believe that solution rather than merely acknowledge it intellectually. Written for the moment a person is first hearing and believing the gospel.
Includes 6 fill-in worksheets and self-assessments (print version), AI-powered prompts at the end of every chapter, and clickable links to Claude and ChatGPT in the digital version. Available in print (8.5×11, binder-ready) and digital (6×9, phone-optimized) formats. Instant download after purchase.
