Romans explains how the gospel saves us, reshapes us, and forms us into a unified people who live under the lordship of Jesus by grace through faith. We begin with the character and initiative of God: His righteousness, mercy, faithfulness, and saving work. And we discover that the good news of Jesus is truly good news for all. As we encounter that gospel, we are called not merely to know the truth but to embody it in lives shaped by the Spirit, marked by holiness, unity, love, and mission.
