The word gospel encompasses both a social and spiritual renewal. To dichotomize the word is to ignore what the gospel actually is. I think there is a shift towards a more balanced approach to the gospel - hopefully in a few years we won't even have this conflict. Anyways, I like this post! Well spoken,
