I guess I'm confused by this statement. When does Paul present a gospel? Plenty of letters to the apostles, but Gospel? I see only Matthew, Mark, Luke and John doing that.

I am talking about the gospel of good news - the gospel of Jesus Christ. That He came to be the sacrifices that He defined for our consecration, fellowship, thanksgiving and atonement. The Greek word translated gospel is euaggelion and is found 77 times in the New Testament. 62 times outside of the "gospels". Whenever we tell about the person and work of Jesus, we are "presenting the gospel". Paul talks about people bringing/teaching a "different gospel" more than once. Hope that helps.
