This series works through the heart of the gospel within the overall story of God, and then deals with several outcomes of this good news in Jesus - how he creates a new people for God by his Spirit, defines and upholds their identity through baptism and communion, and sends them as ministers of reconciliation to the world as foretastes of God's coming kingdom.
