The Gospel for Life Series Bundle

ONLINE EXCLUSIVE*

The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention (ERLC) exists to help churches navigate the muddy waters of our current cultural climate. Through the ministry of the ERLC, many Christians have been equipped to think biblically and engage the culture on such difficult topics as abortion, same-sex marriage, religious liberty, and race, among others. The Gospel for Life series was created, in particular, for Christians hoping to remain faithful in those areas. Now, for the first time, six of the books from The Gospel for Life series are available together with free shipping to help you and your church engage the culture with a worldview shaped by God’s Word.

The Gospel & Racial Reconciliation

In the kingdom of God, it is not us against them.

The problem of racism stretches back as far humanity’s origin in the book of Genesis. Brother pitted against brother, tribe against tribe––people have warred against one another, fueled by contempt for racial differences. Yet the gospel is a message of reconciliation.

The kingdom of God is us reconciled to one another.

The Gospel & Same-Sex Marriage

Christian’s should be known by what they are for, not simply what they are against.

The Bible is unambiguously clear about marriage’s definition and purpose. So, Christians are for marriage. The Bible’s witness on marriage doesn’t allow for same-sex marriage, not because the Bible gives attention to same-sex marriage, but because the biblical narrative on marriage doesn’t conceive of same-sex marriage as within the realm of possibility. Yet, many Christians live among neighbors and under law-makers who disagree.

The Gospel & Religious Liberty

One nation, under God.

Religious liberty isn’t a principle for Americans alone, though it certainly has played an important role in the history of the United States. Religious liberty is a matter of authority and allegiance for people of every land. To whom one owes ultimate allegiance is a matter of the conscience, and one that should be protected in every nation.
But what if religious liberty gives way, and church’s are faced with the difficult decision between allegiance to their country and allegiance to their conscience?

The Gospel & Abortion

The pro-life movement didn’t begin in the 1960s, but in the Garden.

Abortion has been a divisive issue in American culture since the sexual revolution. Yet the Bible is an unapologetic defender of human dignity. Moreover, Christians have always cared for the unborn, the orphan, and the least among us. The time is now for this generation to reaffirm what believers have always believed: everybody is created in the image of God.

The Gospel & Marriage

If marriage is a picture of Christ and the Church, our homes should look like the gospel.

While the culture has never been more confused about the definition of what marriage is, those who are married have never been more hopeless about how marriage should be lived. The times have never been more crucial for digging deeper, past the definition of marriage to the structure of marriage, the blessings of marriage, and the opportunity for living out the image of the gospel that’s embodied within marriage.

The Gospel & Adoption

Every Christian isn’t called to adopt, but everyone is called to care for orphans.

The evangelical adoption movement is but one strand in a long cord of Christian care for orphans. While adoption trends have fluctuated over time in different contexts, the Bible has not changed its position. The gospel is decidedly pro-adoption and on the side of the orphan. Yet many obstacles stand in the way of the Christian’s mission to provide care to the least of these.

So, what now?
