Sometimes life just hurts. Out of nowhere, death, illness, unemployment, or a difficult relationship can change our lives and challenge everything we thought we knew. But amid all this pain and confusion, we are not alone. In this TGC Classic recorded in 2019, Paul Tripp weaves together his personal story, pastoral ministry experience, and biblical insights to encourage believers to cling to God’s promises when trials come, moving forward with the hope of the gospel.

We’re tempted to take the doctrine of the Trinity for granted. But there is scarcely any belief unaffected when we get the Trinity wrong. So argue Don Carson, John Piper, and Tim Keller in this classic discussion recorded at a meeting of The Gospel Coalition’s Council. Pull the thread of the Trinity and the universe unravels. Without the Trinity, grace and glory disappear. So does church unity. And we lose a powerful opportunity to share with unbelievers how the Trinity distinguishes the gospel as the source of love for the world. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Did Jesus and Paul preach the same gospel? In this classic panel discussion recorded at TGC13, Don Carson, Kevin DeYoung, Tim Keller, and John Piper discuss whether Jesus and Paul agreed on the gospel. They respond to the trend among mainline scholars to pit Jesus’s preaching on the kingdom against the gospel of salvation by grace through faith. Carson counsels that if others are abusing the doctrine of the kingdom in a reductionistic way, the response of evangelicals should be to preach the biblical view of the kingdom better and more often, for the glory of God.

Based on concepts from his book The Wisdom Pyramid: Feeding Your Soul in a Post-Truth World , Brett McCracken teaches on how to become wise in a world that offers too much information, too quickly. McCracken addresses an issue of today's generation of quick information—how to develop wisdom amid all that's being thrown at us online. He shares three things that are making us sick: 1. We have too much information. 2. We receive it too quickly. 3. The information is too focused on the individual (self). Instead, of going with the flow of our post-truth world, McCracken counsels that we should go online for a purpose, stay online only as long as we need to, and then go offline.

In this TGC Classic message recorded at our 2019 National Conference, H. B. Charles preaches on Jesus’s conversation with the Samaritan woman, the longest recorded dialogue with Jesus. Charles emphasizes this episode’s placement after Jesus’s discussion with Nicodemus and how it demonstrates Jesus’s mission to reach both the religious and the immoral. Like the Samaritan woman whose transformation caused her to bring many others to Jesus, we should join Jesus in his mission to reach the lost. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
