LOL Groups - Lesson 13: Always We Begin Again With the Gospel
Description
The gospel is not just how we begin the Christian life. The gospel is also how we grow in the Christian life. It’s not just the ABCs of the Christian life, what we learn in the beginning before moving on to the advanced stuff. The gospel is the A-Z of the Christian life, what we always must come back to in order to grow. You never get beyond the cross – only deeper into it. No matter how much we’ve grown or how far we have progressed, we never get beyond our need to get our hearts happy in the gospel each new day. God’s mercies are new every morning and our hearts need to be refreshed every morning because the gospel leaks out of us. “Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it.” It can be frustrating – This again! But it’s a sign of maturing faith to realize, as one of the old fathers put it, “always we begin again.” Always going back to our secure acceptance achieved once and for all by Jesus – that is the advanced stuff.
