Do you know what the gospel is—and why it matters for your relationship with God?

In this episode, Ted Ross clearly explains what the gospel of the kingdom of God & why it is the most important topic in all of Scripture. Many people have heard the word “gospel,” but the Bible clearly defines it as the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This biblical teaching shows why Jesus preached the gospel, how the entire Old Testament pointed to the gospel, and why believing the gospel is God’s power to save and restore your life.

Key teaching points in this episode:
• Jesus’ first & most repeated message was the gospel of the kingdom
• The gospel is defined in 1 Corinthians 15 as Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection
• Jesus fulfilled Old Testament prophecy through His suffering and resurrection
• Why the gospel demands repentance and faith towards God
• How the gospel brings salvation, forgiveness, and restoration through Christ

Listen to the full episode and consider what it means to not only hear the gospel, but to believe it, trust it, and live under God’s kingdom.

Simple Truth—Simple. Biblical. Essential.

Have you ever known what God was leading you to do, but hesitated because you were not fully sure? Many Christians are not only asking how to hear God’s voice, but how to trust and obey the Holy Spirit when He speaks.

In this episode of the Simple Truth Podcast, Ted Ross teaches what it means to live a Spirit-led life in practical, biblical ways. Building on the previous episode about hearing and recognizing God’s voice, this message focuses on trusting God’s direction, obeying His prompting, and reviewing your actions through Scripture and spiritual fruit.

• How trusting God’s voice requires faith beyond your own understanding
• Why obedience to the Holy Spirit is part of spiritual maturity
• What Romans 8 teaches about being led by the Spirit as a child of God
• How to examine your actions and test whether you followed God rightly
• Why the fruit of the Spirit helps confirm God’s leading
