What is the Gospel?(Romans 1:16-25)

How do we define "The Gospel"? What is it "Good News"?

As we consider how we are to follow Jesus in the everyday stuff of life, and allow the Gospel to transform everything in our lives, we need to have some clarity on what the Gospel IS.

Romans 1:16-24 is a good foundation and starting point. But a lot of it doesn't sound like good news, in fact - it's more BAD news...at least at first glance.
