gospel stories

New Testament accounts

Gospel stories are narratives from the four Gospels of the New Testament—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—recounting the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The term often refers to these accounts as used in religious education or worship: The children learned gospel stories in Sunday school.

It can also describe any retelling or adaptation of biblical narratives about Jesus.
