Lesson 3: Understanding the gospel message | The Good News Made Simple

What You’ll learn:

• The gospel is the good news of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection.

• The gospel is not rules, self-help, or condemnation—it’s God’s gift of salvation.

• A simple way to share: The Romans Road

  • All have sinned (Romans 3:23)

  • Sin leads to death (Romans 6:23a)

  • God’s gift is eternal life (Romans 6:23b)

  • Jesus died for us (Romans 5:8)

  • Confess and believe (Romans 10:9–10)

  • Assurance: Whoever calls on Him will be saved (Romans 10:13)

Activity: In small groups, role-play explaining the gospel to someone with no church background. Practice keeping it simple, clear, and centered on Jesus.

Challenge for the Week: Share the gospel with one person this week in the simplest way you can—using your own words, guided by the truth of Scripture.
