What exactly is the gospel… and why does getting it right matter so much?
In this episode, Josh and Glen circle back to Mark’s opening chapters to unpack the meaning of baptism, the beauty of identifying with Christ’s death and resurrection, and the life-changing reality of the gospel itself. Along the way, they explore why baptism is more than tradition, why discipleship begins with surrender, and how everyday believers can confidently engage spiritual conversations with Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and neighbors searching for truth.
From garden hose baptisms to deep theology to unexpected front porch evangelism, this conversation is packed with practical discipleship and a bold reminder that the gospel is not about what we do for God… but what Christ has already done for us.
