From the latest issue of Themelios:
At the end of the mission trip one of the team members gave me a CD of a sermon called “What is the Gospel?” by Tim Keller. I put it on my desk and thought to myself, “If i don’t know what the Gospel is by now, I am in sad shape.” Indeed...
A couple of months went by and I finally picked up the Keller CD and listened to it as I drove. Before long, I found myself sitting alone in the car, fighting back the tears. Keller was connecting the dots: Christ's relationship with his Father was shattered so that mine might be made whole.

The article is only three pages long, and it's worth reading. You can find the article on page 62 of this PDF.
Now, THERE's a CD I would love to listen to!!!
Great resource. Thanks so much for sharing. First time on your blog and love it.
Would have loved to read the article as well, but a half-hour of down-load time on dial up, and it still wasn't more than 28% complete! Rats!
