Gospel People: A Call for Evangelical Integrity
By: Michael Reeves - Gospel People: A Call for Evangelical Integrity explores the challenges and conflicts among Evangelical Christians when believers become divided by non-essential issues. As followers of Christ, we are to look only to Scripture for our instruction, only to Jesus for our salvation, and only to the Holy Spirit for our regeneration. This book offers an important reminder that while we may not agree on every secondary matter, we are called to reflect the light of the Gospel in a dark world.
