An Introduction to Romans: Video Bible Study

Updated: Nov 15

Welcome to The Gospel Challenge!


Hi there, and welcome to The Gospel Challenge! Over the next 62 days, we will dive deep into the book of Romans, unpacking its themes, ideas, and how they teach the life-changing message of the Gospel. Whether you're a new believer or someone looking to deepen your understanding, this study will provide clarity and application for your walk with Jesus.


Here's a video introduction to what the Gospel Challenge is:


Romans is one of the greatest books of the Bible—it’s a theological masterpiece that lays out the Gospel with more depth than any other book. It answers questions about salvation, sin, grace, and what it truly means to live as a follower of Christ. Are you ready to embrace the challenge and grow in your faith?


Who Is Teaching This Romans Study?

I’m Darrell Stetler II, a pastor with over 20 years of experience and a deep passion for discipleship. I hold a degree in Bible & Theology from God’s Bible School and College, and I've spent much of my life helping small church pastors develop tools and strategies to disciple their people effectively. The Gospel Challenge is part of that mission.


As the creator of the NewStart Discipleship system, I understand the challenges that new Christians face when trying to get rooted in their faith. This study will guide you step by step, helping you develop spiritual habits that stick.


What You Can Expect from This Romans Video Bible Study

Here’s what makes this study unique:


  • Daily Videos: A 5–7 minute video will explain the passage of the day, giving you clear insights into its meaning and practical application.

  • Quiet Prayer Moments: Each session includes a 2-minute reflection to pray the Scripture back to God, helping you align your heart with His Word.

  • Benedictions: A 30-second blessing will encourage and empower you for the day ahead.

  • Interactive Workbook: With fill-in-the-blank notes and a daily meditation question, the workbook reinforces what you’re learning.

  • "Reach Out" Challenge: You'll be invited to connect with your mentor (or a fellow believer), share insights, ask questions, and request prayer.

In just 15 minutes a day, you’ll experience clear teaching and discipleship habits as we walk through Romans together.


Why Romans? The Purpose of This Study

The book of Romans provides one of the clearest explanations of the Gospel in the entire Bible. Paul lays out the problem of sin, the solution through Jesus Christ, and the practical implications for daily living. This study is:


  • Accessible: Designed for believers at all levels of understanding—no theological degree required!

  • Life-Changing: Focused on applying the Gospel to your everyday life.

  • Interactive: Encouraging community through shared insights and discussions.


The Gospel Challenge is not about a scholarly deep dive but about learning, applying, and growing. Romans 1:16 reminds us, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes...” (Romans 1:16 ESV)—this power is what we’re tapping into.

  2. Mentor-Driven Discipleship: By reaching out to a mentor daily, you’ll experience community and accountability—a proven method for spiritual growth​.

  3. Short, Practical Lessons: We know you're busy, so each day’s lesson fits into 15 minutes.
