CloseDr. Tom Riley - June 18, 2023
First Things First (Romans 11:33-12:2)

The marvel we feel at the love and grace of God is what Tom calls “gospel astonishment.” As we come to know Christ more deeply, His Spirit moves us to find new ways to express that astonishment, first of all, in our community of faith, which Tom refers to as “gospel commu-nity.” Then the second impulse of that amazing love moves us to reach out and touch a world not yet in Jesus’ embrace, which Tom describes as “gospel movement.” In other words, gospel astonishment builds gospel community, and gospel community fuels gospel movement. And all of it is empowered by the Spirit of Jesus to bring humanity under His shepherding care for the glory of His name and kingdom!
