About this audiobook
How does the church portray the beauty of Christ?The gospel is a theological message. But this message also creates human beauty-beautiful relationships in our churches, making the glory of Christ visible in the world today.In this timely book, Pastor Ray Ortlund makes the case that gospel doctrine creates a gospel culture. In too many of our churches, it is the beauty of a gospel culture that is the missing piece of the puzzle. But when the gospel is allowed to exert its full power, a church becomes radiant with the glory of Christ.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A well thought out discourse on the power of God to transform our lives and culture.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book really presented something so familiar, the gospel, in a fresh, unfamiliar way. His presentation cut through the apathy in my heart, and warmed me to the gospel in a powerful way once again.
