About this listen

Baptisms are down, church doors are closing, and once-faithful Christians are leaving their faith. This issue has puzzled many for years. Some suggest focusing on discipleship and Christian education, while others create programs to help the Gospel “stick.” However, the problem lies in the Gospel proclamation itself. The solution isn’t a new Gospel but a bigger, historical, and more comprehensive one. The Gospel is Bigger than You Think offers a thorough approach to the biblical Gospel, broadening the listener's perspective and creating lasting Kingdom impact.

Part I: The Gospel Proper

This part clarifies the biblical meaning of the Gospel and presents the Kingdom Gospel as the core narrative. Jesus' message was that the Kingdom of God is at hand, from which all of Christ’s works flow, culminating in the eternal Kingdom of God.

Part II: The Gospel’s Effects

Five Gospel spokes extend from the Kingdom Gospel image. Gospel Victory illustrates Christ’s triumph over sin, death, and rebellious beings, culminating in His cosmic reign. Gospel Family examines adoption and estrangement from Adam’s fall, showing how followers are adopted as sons of God and regenerated by the Holy Spirit. Gospel Restitution analyzes the first goat of the Day of Atonement, emphasizing the need for a perfect blood sacrifice, paralleling the Lord’s Supper. Gospel Repentance focuses on the second goat, symbolizing repentance by sending sin to its source. Gospel Transformation considers the image of God given to Adam and Eve and its relation to being conformed to Christ’s image, encompassing themes of glorification and deification.

Part III: Conclusion

Gospel Simplicity addresses childlike faith. While a child may not grasp the Gospel’s depth, faith can be received in a childlike manner. This book offers a comprehensive view of the Gospel and a framework for fruitful conversations.

The gospel is actually throughout the whole Bible!

What do dragons have to do with the gospel? Delgado demonstrates that the story of Jesus’ kingship is so big, it stretches from Genesis to Revelation, encompassing dragons, goats, demons, even giants. After listening to Delgado’s book, I’m seeing the gospel in new and hidden corners of my Bible.
