I regularly am bemused to find people (usually calling themselves “evangelical“) asking “what is the Gospel?” and debating and arguing with each other what the Gospel is. Scot McKnight’s 17 minute talk may be quite a challenge for such people. For the rest of us, I also think the talk is worth the watch. Enjoy! H/T Phil McCarthy
