Gospel Resources

The gospel of Jesus Christ should be front and center in the lives of every Christian. It should permeate every area of our lives and cause us to go to every corner of our world for the fame of His name. Below are some resources that I have compiled to help me understand, believe, live, share, sing, defend, and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. I pray that can be helpful to you as well.

2 Comments on “Gospel Resources”


  1. [...] Brister announced his blog’s gospel-centered resources page. It contains lists of books, blogs, articles, and media to aid in enriching gospel-understanding. [...]

  2. Mick Porter Says:

    Hi Timmy,

    Great resources here! Also, really good to see the list of “Mercy Ministries” links in the margin.

    There seems to be a lot of push and shove between a “gospel” focus and a “justice/mercy” focus these days – although I’m sure the two actually belong together.

    I was just doing some blog searching for pages where these 2 come up together, because we just completed producing a DVD series on gospel application to justice and mercy issues.

    (BTW, I met you at T4G ‘06 – I’m in Brisbane, Australia)
