Thune and Walker are associated with the Serge (formerly World Harvest Mission) network, which has strong Reformed and gospel-renewal roots influenced by Jack Miller and Tim Keller's gospel-centered sanctification framework. The curriculum is widely used across denominational lines and is particularly well-suited for church membership classes and small-group discipleship tracks.

Lots of Christians talk about the gospel, but how many really understand and know how to apply it to their lives? In this life-changing training resource, authors Robert H. Thune and Will Walker communicate both to the new Christian and the seasoned pastor the need for gospel renewal.
By training people in the implications of the good news, The Gospel-Centered Life helps pastors, leaders, and Christians everywhere who long to see gospel transformation in themselves and in their churches.
This Christ-focused material is simple and digestible for leaders to use while also cultivating thoughtful, rich discussion. The Gospel-Centered Life focuses on true heart change rather than behavioral modification, helping readers recognize relationship issues in practical ways.
Featuring nine self-contained lessons with discussion questions, articles, practical exercises, and comprehensive leader's notes in the back, The Gospel-Centered Life helps participants understand how the gospel shapes every aspect of life. Readers will gain biblical insight on the temptation to pretend and perform, what heart idolatry and repentance looks like, dealing with conflict in relationships, and much more.
