Being Gospel-Centered

One of the pitfalls in studying Theology, at any level, is holding up the value of knowledge higher than the value of loving Jesus. In doing so, we miss being truly gospel-centered, because it’s our love for Christ that compels us to live the Christian life. I love this conversation between J.D. Greear, Trevin Wax, and Greg Gilbert as they discuss this issue.
