the gospel in ways that are true, filled with promise, and ultimately world changing.

Title: Gospel Revolution: Recovering the Power of Christianity (JD Greear)Facilitator: Don Lourcey

Audience: General, All Ages

Duration: 8 Weeks

Place: The Branches Classroom, Room 113

Format: DVD/Discussion Driven with member workbook

Description: A discipleship experience that leads group members to understand

how to let the gospel work in their hearts the way religion never has or could. On

a journey to greater understanding of the gospel, Pastor J.D. Greear ran through allthe religious activities typically associated with a disciple's life: giving, adopting,

missionality, preaching, and witnessing. Though disciplined and intentional in allaspects, only when J.D. "discovered" the gospel of Jesus Christ did everythingchange. That's why the objective of Gospel Revolution is to help group members

abide in Jesus. They will find that when they do, passion, self-control, kindness,

patience, and radical generosity are the natural results. Marriages will change.Participants will become more self-disciplined. They will be less selfish. Not by concentrating on these things,

but as a result of being captivated by the love of Christ. Watch this video interview of JD Greear on the
