What did God use to draw a radical, committed unbeliever to himself? Did God take her to an evangelistic rally? Or, since she had her doctorate in literature, did he use something in print? No, God used an invitation to dinner in a modest home, from a humble couple who lived out the gospel daily, simply, and authentically.

A rebellious rallying cry against the mundane and mediocre that have hijacked true faith. Farley and Lynch take on the voice of God’s modern-day messengers to dispatch fiery letters to the Church of today, calling for a revolution back to the radical grace of God. With biting wit and unapologetic candor, Gospel Zero takes a sledgehammer to the idols of legalism and lifeless religion. The authors argue with the fervor of the ancient apostles yet speak directly to the 21st-century believer, calling us to awaken from our doctrinal drowsiness and rediscover the untamed Gospel of grace.

Teens and young adults today don't have much in common with the Baby Boomers and Gen X who came before them. Today’s youth are increasingly lost and broken, insecure and uncertain of their identity. They don’t know where to find hope, and instead of running to the church they are running from it. They're not worried about going to hell; they are already going through hell.

This audiobook combines a serious examination of the state of today's church and a powerful solution: reclaiming the gospel of grace found in the confessional truths of the Reformation. Though the Christian church has achieved a worldly sort of success - big numbers, big budgets, big outreaches - these are not good days for evangelicalism. Attendance is down, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish so-called "believers" from their non-Christian neighbors - all because the gospel of grace has been neglected.

Evangelism is not only misunderstood, it is often unpracticed. Many Christians want to share the gospel with others, but because those Christians don't grasp the fundamentals of witnessing, they feel intimidated and incapable of sharing the truth of the gospel. Yet those believers fail to recognize that God has already established who and how we are to evangelize. In The Gospel and Personal Evangelism, Dr. Mark Dever seeks to answer the four basic questions about evangelism that many Christians ask: Who should we evangelize? How should we evangelize? What is evangelism? Why should we evangelize?

Ferguson sheds light on this central issue and why it still matters today.
