The Gospel Driven Life by Dr. Michael Horton is a deep, rich, and thought-provoking book. Its purpose is ?to recover the focus on Christ as the host and meal that delivers forgiveness, new life, and transformation in a world that is wasting away.? Its targeted audience is laypeople, parents and pastors who are tired of the hype and want to see their lives and churches be more gospel centered.
The book is wide in scope, covering God?s actions and the working out of His story from Genesis through Revelation, and what it means for man. Dr. Horton defines the gospel and applies it to our everyday lives, focusing on justification and sanctification, reflecting the subtitle of the book, ?being good news people in a bad news world?. It is Dr. Horton?s wish for the gospel to be recovered in our personal and corporate lives as Christians.
The second half of the book is the emphasis on the community of God living ?the gospel driven life?, especially as the church of God. We are to live as a community standing on the gospel, as it infuses us with new life and power. Dr. Horton makes the call for pastors to preach the gospel and minister to the people in word and sacraments, and for the church to obey and live out this gospel for the entire world to see.
This is a refreshing and powerful book. It is challenging to read and not a ?how to? or ?10 steps to a better you? book. It is rewarding and of great benefit.
