Overview

Never was the Gospel told me from beginning to end. Mostly it was about me being a sinner, who put Jesus on the cross and needed a prayer to go to Heaven. While Church is the place where the Lord is found. Correct - sort of. The Gospel is far more interesting than that. What really is God's story? How might the Trinity view the Good News? How, in a struggling world, might I? While reflecting on this dual perspective I began to think again. What I found makes a difference - quite wonderful. When in my twenties I became enthused with God's Good News and the excitement has never left me since. 'Think you know it, think again' became the guiding principle of my understanding with many benefits both spiritually and practically. My questions of what personhood really was about were answered with spiritual theology and the Christian mystical tradition being particularly helpful. I have been reading in religion, philosophy and psychology also. Today, I am more convinced than ever of the central importance of the Gospel to our world. In every sense it is primary. The Lord's Good News is ever relevant. It is kind, full of love and uniquely personal. It enhances personhood and creativity. In my search for truth I understood that for the Gospel to be effective in living it out, it best be rather simple. It is the only way in making success possible. Such simplicity would allow for a concentrated focus on what I would aim to be about. Keep it simple - keep it focused. Though simple, it needed to be a profound way of life and meet the requirements beneficial to psycho-spiritual wellbeing. Furthermore, it should extend mere knowledge and connect with the transcendent. I have always considered myself to be a person with spiritual tendencies. Needless to say, God's Good News meets all these requirements and more in that it is relational in a unique way. It not merely informs, but helps towards proficiency in what it encourages.
