A Daily Thunder Series with Nathan Johnson
The Grand and Glorious Gospel
Discovering the Depth and Beauty of the Good News
Part 1: What is the Gospel?
If someone asked you to define and describe the Gospel, what would you say? In this introduction to his new series “The Grand and Glorious Gospel,” Nathan Johnson talks about the Gospel itself, the four key elements of it, and gives an overview of what we will cover in this series.
Part 2: The Bad News of the Gospel
The good news is even greater news when seen in light of the bad news. Without knowing the sinful condition we are in apart from Christ, we will fail to understand our need for a Savior. In this study, Nathan examines the “bad news” of the Gospel — we are sinners deserving of judgment … and we desperately need salvation.
Part 3: The Superlative Reality
Jesus IS our salvation! This is so profound that “good” news makes it sound paltry. The superlative reality is that Christ Himself has saved us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into His own kingdom. In this study we talk about Jesus being our salvation in the past, present, and future tenses.

Part 4: Repent and Believe
The modern “gospel” has often been reduced to a true/false test — a simple prayer at the end of a sermon. But biblical salvation requires you to repent and believe … to make Jesus Christ Lord and Savior of your life. And this response to the Gospel is not something we do once but is an ongoing lifestyle and response we live everyday. This is why Christians are called “believers” — we are the ones who continually believe (put our hope, trust, and faith in Jesus Christ and His Word).
Part 5: The Great Exchange
The Gospel offers a great exchange: my life for Christ’s. Because of the Gospel, I have been bought with a price, and my life is now hid in Christ Jesus. As such, I am to live not merely for Christ, but through Christ. In this study, Nathan examines the “exchanged life” and what it means to practically abide and abound in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Bonus: What Happened to the Gospel?
In this special bonus episode, Nathan talks about why we aren’t releasing a “normal” study in the series this week, gives a quick reflection on the series thus far, and talks about two profound quotes on the Gospel from Charles Spurgeon.
