“Christianity by definition begins with the historical figure of Jesus Christ. If God has spoken, his last and greatest word to the world is Jesus Christ. If God has acted, his noblest act is the redemption of the world through Jesus Christ.” John Stott – Basic Christianity

That is the message we are charged with sharing and blessed for being chosen to convey.
