Dimensions of Gospel Truth: Interview with Tullian Tchividjian
Dimensions of Gospel Truth: Interview with Tullian Tchividjian avatar

Have you ever taken time to sit down and reflect on what comes into your mind when you consider Jesus? It's rather amazing how many hours we can spend in church ministry without giving serious thought to the question. Since our view of Jesus Christ shapes our faith, and our faith (or lack thereof) inevitably forms our identity, we would do well to give it thought. As A. W. Tozer famously put it The Knowledge of the Holy, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us."

Many of us struggle to acquire a biblically informed view of God. Our challenge is not simply seeing through a dark glass; we also have the problem of looking in the wrong direction. In this interview, I talk with Tullian Tchividjian about some of the central ideas that should cross our minds when we hear the word gospel.

Chris Castaldo serves as director of the Ministry of Gospel Renewal for the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College. He is the author of Holy Ground: Walking with Jesus as a Former Catholic. He earned an MDiv at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and is completing a PhD at the London School of Theology. He blogs at www.chriscastaldo.com.

  1. Helpful. Thank you. So glorious to be united in the One called Faithful and True! We have been crucified with Christ, no longer living, but Christ living in us! We have the Spirit fruit. Let us therefore strive to enter rest so that no one may fall by disobedience. Let us strive to enter through the narrow door for many will seek to enter and will not be able. He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one source. Now may the God of peace himself sanctify us completely, and may our whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls us is faithful; he will surely do it. Let us pray for each other. (Rev 19:11; Gal 2:20; Gal 5:22; Heb 4:10; Luke 13:24; Heb 2:10; 1 Thess 5:23 )
