What Are the Gospels—and Why Do They Matter So Much? | Dr. Grant Flynn

What are the Gospels—and why are there four of them? In this lecture, Dr. Grant Flynn introduces the Gospels by explaining what they are, why they were written, and how they are meant to be read. You’ll learn the difference between the gospel (the message of salvation) and the Gospels (the written accounts of Jesus’ life), along with why Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John each tell the story differently. Rather than treating the Gospels as disconnected stories or simple biographies, this session shows how they function as theological narratives designed to produce faith, certainty, and transformation. 📖 In this video: What the Gospels actually are Why there are four Gospel accounts How each Gospel uniquely presents Jesus How to read the Gospels with clarity and confidence This video is part of a lecture series designed to help both new readers and longtime Christians better understand the heart of the New Testament.
