Main Session 1 of the Multiply Conference features Dr. Michael Goheen unpacking the question, “What is the good news of Jesus Christ?” He shows how the New Testament gospel is far bigger than a private ticket to heaven—it's the royal announcement that Jesus is Lord, God’s kingdom has broken into history, and the church is called to embody that reality in the middle of rival “gospels” and cultural stories.
Key points you can use:
-
The gospel is not just about individual forgiveness, but the Kingdom of God breaking into history to restore all of creation under Jesus’ rule.
-
Jesus’ good news directly confronts competing gospels, especially the imperial “good news” of Caesar and the modern gospels of consumerism and success.
-
The gospel creates a Kingdom community—the church—called to live under Jesus’ lordship in every area of life and join His mission in the world.
-
True renewal in the church doesn’t start with strategy, but with a fresh encounter with the living Christ in the gospel, leading to deep discipleship and spiritual practices.
-
We live in the “already and not yet” overlap of the ages, called to embody resurrection life now while we wait for the fullness of God’s kingdom to come.
