Making the Good News Good Again

Recovering the Wonder of the Gospel

by Judson Edwards

In Making the Good News Good Again, Judson Edwards asks questions shared by many longtime Christians: wouldn’t it be great if the Bible fascinated us once again? Wouldn’t we do almost anything to sense the presence of God anew in our lives? Wouldn’t we pay almost anything to get the wonder back?

Wonder is the fuel that keeps Christians going, the element that makes our faith contagious and alive—and it is the greatest need in our churches today. With so many of our spiritual tanks running low, we need to splash around in grace a while and come out laughing and feeling frisky again. Making the Good News Good Again will help readers hear with new ears the sweet, undistilled melody of the gospel.

Judson Edwards is the author of nine books, including The Leadership Labyrinth and Hidden Treasures, both published by Smyth & Helwys. A Baptist pastor for more than thirty years, he lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife, Sherry.
