The Core of Our Faith

Scripture: “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins … that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day … and that he appeared.” – 1 Corinthians 15:3–5

Paul spent years studying and teaching, but when he boiled it all down, here was the gospel: Christ died, He was buried, He rose, and He appeared. That’s it. That’s the core of our belief. Bold belief isn’t about mastering every doctrine, but clinging to the simple, life-changing truth of the cross and resurrection.

The early church spread this message with passion because it was personal—it changed them. Has it changed you? Bold belief means not only embracing this truth for ourselves, but sharing it so others may believe too.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for the gospel—simple, powerful, and true. Help me stand firm in this foundation and boldly share it with others.
