@TruthUnites What does it actually mean to be Protestant?
Many Christians today struggle to define Protestantism beyond what it opposes. In this video, Gavin Ortlund offers a positive, historical, and theological definition of Protestantism—not merely as a reaction against Rome, but as a movement of reform and renewal within the church.

Drawing from church history and core Reformation theology, Gavin explains why Protestantism is bigger than any single denomination or movement, and why its central doctrines still matter deeply today. He focuses especially on Sola Fide (justification by faith alone) and Sola Scriptura (Scripture as the only infallible rule of faith), showing how these teachings address modern anxieties about meaning, assurance, and truth.

Rather than being outdated or merely negative, Protestantism is presented here as good news for the modern world—offering hope, stability, and clarity in an age of uncertainty.

Topics covered include:

Why Protestantism is more than a protest
