Is the Bible a Distraction? | Chaffey, T. 2017.
Answers 12(2):72-76. CELD ID 26337Abstract In an interview with Russell Moore, Pastor Andy Stanley encouraged Christian leaders to take their focus off the Bible and put it on the resurrection in order to reach a skeptical world. But we don't need to abandon our defense of the Scripture to emphasize the resurrection. When you hear the word gospel, what image pops into your mind? For many, perhaps most believers, it's the Cross. And that's not surprising, given the emphasis in many evangelical churches today. How often have you heard a sermon about the "good news," and come away with vivid images of Christ's suffering and humiliating death on the Cross? But something's missing. The Resurrection!
