Episode 8: Navigating the Bible Content and Message Part 6: The Four Gospels

The New Testament starts off with 4 Gospel books written in this order:
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Gospel means good news. These 4 Gospels tell
us about the life and teaching of Jesus Christ. When the word Gospel is
used in reference to these 4 books it refers to a book that includes the
historical accounts of what Jesus said and did during his life on earth
that are geared to the needs of the early church. The Gospels are addressed
to different audiences and each emphasizes aspects of Jesus’ teaching and
ministry geared to reaching these various audiences. Towards the end of
these 4 Gospels is the account of Jesus’ death on the cross and his
resurrection from the dead on the third day. This episode focuses on
learning the names of these four Gospel accounts in order and some of their
content.
