Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many Christian leaders act as though the Gospel is not a topic worthy of discussion. They speak on the wonders of knowing Christ, but never explain why a person needs Christ, who Christ is, and what Christ accomplished to make it possible for us to be given the gift of life with God. In Whatever Happened to the Gospel?, author Dr. David Nicholas addresses why the absence of Gospel teaching in a huge majority of modern evangelical churches is a problem and how to solve it. Citing the results of a LifeWay Research survey, Dr. David Nicholas shows how the Bad News and the Good News of the Gospel is often left out of sermons, and yet pastors still invite people to receive Jesus into their hearts. Whatever Happened to the Gospel? uses Scriptural passages to explain the Bad and Good News in a way that cuts through the confusion that exists in the minds of many. The church at large is in sad shape today because many who call themselves Christians have no idea what they believe. This confusion can be resolved through sharing the Gospel and making the Gospel part of every message. Evangelism and true discipleship begin with a clear, complete, logical, and sequential presentation of the Bad News and Good News. By following the lessons and examples presented in Whatever Happened to the Gospel?, believers are strengthened and empowered, knowing they are part of the Lord's great eternal plan. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
