“The nature of the gospel,” Graeme Goldsworthy observes, “is such that it establishes Jesus Christ at the center of the biblical message.”
To that end, we looked across the whole scriptural narrative to see Christ as the center at Clarus ’18 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Stephen Wellum and Trent Hunter preached messages on the covenantal progressions in Scripture, alongside their new book, Christ from Beginning to End.
Attended by 700 from across the region, Clarus is TGC’s Southwest Regional Conference hosted by Desert Springs Church in partnership with TGC Albuquerque.

Free eBook by Tim Keller: ‘The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness’
Imagine a life where you don’t feel inadequate, easily offended, desperate to prove yourself, or endlessly preoccupied with how you look to others. Imagine relishing, not resenting, the success of others. Living this way isn’t far-fetched. It’s actually guaranteed to believers, as they learn to receive God’s approval, rather than striving to earn it.
In Tim Keller’s short ebook, The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness: The Path To True Christian Joy, he explains how to overcome the toxic tendencies of our age一not by diluting biblical truth or denying our differences一but by rooting our identity in Christ.
TGC is offering this Keller resource for free, so you can discover the “blessed rest” that only self-forgetfulness brings.
