Gospel Shaped Mercy is a seven-week whole-church resource that explores what it means to be a community engaging with the world with compassion and justice. It challenges us to see how works of mercy are an integral part of what it means to respond to the gospel of Christ. Christians have always shown concern for the poor and needy. From the earliest times, Christians cared for widows and orphans. They founded hospitals, brought relief to the poor, and championed social reform to improve life in prisons and end slavery. In Gospel Shaped Mercy we'll discover God's breathtaking vision for a world put right. This resource will focus your thinking as both an individual and as a church. Through teaching, preaching, daily reading, small-group Bible study and discussion, we'll see how God's call to show his love, justice and mercy to our needy world is both clear and uncompromising. And we'll get practical, as we discuss how our church communities can better show the justice, love and mercy of Christ to those around us. The Handbook contains all you need to take an active part in this exploration of gospel shaped mercy-discussion questions, daily devotionals, Bible studies, and space for you to record your thoughts, prayers and ideas as you work through the material with your church. Gospel Shaped Church is a five part curriculum from the Gospel Coalition. The overall aim is that you will discover together the kind of people you should be as you are shaped by the gospel of Jesus Christ.
