“I am not ashamed of the gospel.”

This is what the apostle Paul wrote to a

group of Christ-followers in Rome in the

late first century. Paul said he is not

ashamed of the gospel because it is

God’s power to save all humankind

(Romans 1:16). In the next verse, he

explained that “the righteousness of

God is being revealed” in the gospel.

A n o t h e r w a y o f t r a n s l a t i n g

“righteousness of God” is “God’s

making-things-right power.” So, what is

being revealed? God’s power to heal

the world and reconcile all humankind

to one another and to God.

No wonder Paul was not ashamed!

Would you be?

Join us this fall as we dig deeper into

Paul’s letter to learn more about the

meaning and significance of the gospel

then and now.
