Segment 3 – What Do You Seek? Encountering the Heart of the Gospel
“The Good News of Jesus Christ is known as the kerygma, based on the Greek word kerysso, meaning ‘to herald’ or ‘to proclaim.’ It is the core message of Christ that each of the Apostles, the original heralds of the Gospel, proclaimed to the world. It is Christ’s answer to his own penetrating question, ‘What do you seek?’” Dr. Sri writes about this in his new book. (Originally aired June 11, 2024)
