Publisher's summary

For those who are weary of Christian cliché and compromise crowding out what was supposed to be good news, The Naked Gospel offers the fresh take on the story of Jesus you've been waiting for.

As a university student, Andrew Farley found himself physically and emotionally addicted to street evangelism and Bible study. Yet despite his fervid behavior, he knew something was missing.

That something was an understanding of the gospel that is stripped of the churchy jargon and hypocrisies of the modern church. The Naked Gospel finds kindred spirits among those who are burned out on experience-chasing, ceremonialism, or legalism. It dismantles churchy jargon and powerless ideas and puts forth a message that is simple but life changing:

Jesus plus nothing. 100% natural. No additives.

The Naked Gospel is an invitation to dive deep into the indispensable, powerful core of the Christian faith. Are you ready?

Spanish edition also available.

Great reminder of the Gospel!!!

This book was really enjoyable!!!

The power of the Gospel is explained in a simple and biblical manner in this book.
Sometimes the church or religion seems to complicate or add to the Gospel.
This book was a great reminder of how simple and powerful the Gospel really is.

Life Transforming teaching!

This is the single most effective teaching of the scriptures I have ever read. I kept having to pause it and exclaim out loud! It's so simple and logical that it almost feels foolish! Thank you God for gifting Andrew with this understanding and ability to teach it. I will never be the same.

Eye opening

Incredible book that focuses on what the Bible truly says rather than what most American preachers believe it says. It is great to hear a simple understanding of the Gospel put forth by Andrew Farley. I’ll be reading more of his books.

Great!

A step toward understanding the Bible's message for perhaps the first time. Legalism hates this message because it Liberates the captives by showing what Christ has really done for them in the Gospel! Satan hates this for the same reasons. Be Free for once; so you can Worship, and mean it!

Good read for those trapped in legalism!

Good read for those trapped in legalism! I don't necessarily agree with all of the authors interpretations of scripture, but it was a good take on how you can get trapped in legalism or wrong teaching taken out of context, thanks Andrew!!

Naked gospel?

I enjoyed the book and it gives a thought provoking approach to the message of Christ and salvation. I greatly appreciate the message of the power of God's grace. Other assumptions such as Adam and Eve innocently partaking of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil simply can't stand as presented in the book. Adam disobeyed God's instruction to leave the tree alone. Adam ignored God's warning and the result that death would follow disobedience. No matter how good the tree looked or how desirable for food it was not for man to mess with. As they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions! Still I enjoyed the read!
