There's something that is good for our souls that's imaging God to work hard for the good of others,

Welcome to the Spoken Gospel podcast.

Spoken Gospel is a ministry that's dedicated to speaking the gospel out of every corner of Scripture.

In Luke 24, Jesus told his disciples that every part of the Bible is about him.

In each episode, hosts David and Seth work through a passage of Scripture to see how it's all about Jesus and his good news.

Here we get three verses.
