This series is called The Gift of Grace. This is my favorite subject to preach on. If you don't want to be encouraged for the next four weeks, you better stay away from church, because this is the most encouraging message I've ever [...]

I will preach on peace, the power of peace. The last time I preached on peace at Gateway, it didn't go well. It was about 16 years ago and we were in the day care center. Pastor Robert was preaching for me. I was preaching on peace in the midst [...]

It saved me from performance and condemnation and all of that. That's what we'll be talking about. If you turn in your Bibles to Ephesians five, however you read the Bible there, this message is called "Every great father". And I [...]

One of the biggest issues in marriage in any relationship, is communication. And when you have communication there's just a sense of good will, of intimacy, of passion. When you lose your ability to communicate, it really is game, set, and [...]

I wanna talk to you about a very, very common dynamic that happens in our lives, that affects our marriages, really it affects every relationship in our lives. Very common, very destructive, and the biggest problem with this issue is that most [...]

So, I'm on my way home from work, and my lovely bride, Stephanie, calls me and says, "Listen, we're running out of milk, would you swing by the store and pick it up"? I said, "Yes, of course". It's easy for me to [...]

So if you're like me, you're probably wondering to some degree, why does this strengths thing matter to me? I mean, you're saying that it could help our marriage, I get that, but you got to sell me first, and I'm right there with [...]

One of the things that makes people feel insecure about marriage is just feeling as though that it's not reliable. You know, if 50% of airplanes taking off were crashing, you'd be nervous about flying, so a lot of young people today are [...]

God the Father on the cross turned his back on Jesus Christ. Let me say this: he rejected Jesus once for all 2,000 years ago so he'll never, ever reject us again in eternity. Those of us who have put our faith in Christ, "My God, why have [...]

Peter came to Jesus and said, this is verse 21, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to 7 times"? Now, do you get the feeling right then that someone was Peter's nerves? You know. I've forgiven [...]

Comparison is something that we're given to as human beings. It's just simply something that all of us do, but the kind of comparison I'm talking about this morning is the type of comparison that the devil uses to implant within us [...]

How to recognize shame. Now, if someone would have come up to me and said, "Do you have shame in your life"? I would have said, "No". Now, Karen did. She would have just said, "Yeah". She had dealt with shame all of her [...]

There's a question I want to start with, and the question is this, and that is Jesus never experienced fear any other time in his life. The Bible never records that Jesus ever experienced fear outside of the Garden of Gethsemane here. And so [...]

Key number one is a Godward mind-set, is focusing your mind toward God. And David was a master at this. Now, in the book of Psalms, there are 150 Psalms in the book of Psalms. 73 of the 150 Psalms are attributed to king David. David was a worshiper. [...]

In Exodus 3:1 Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian and he led the flock to the back of the desert and came to Horeb, now that's Sinai, Mount Sinai, the Mountain of God. Now Moses is hiding, OK, this, [...]

When you have wrong expectations in a marriage you're just waiting to get your heart broken. One of the worst things that happens is when young people or older people come into a marriage relationship and they have wrong expectations and so [...]

Let me say something, and I don't want this to offend you but it's the truth. You don't have any love. Love is not in people. We have zero capacity to love. Now, what we would call love, apart from God, is just a human fickle, [...]

Moses didn't know God at all when he met him and we're gonna read this story here in just a minute of God's introduction of himself to Moses. They didn't have a bible. Imagine living in a time, the children of Israel didn't [...]

Karen and I were set free by this. Psalm 107:20 says this. God sent his word to heal us and to deliver us from all of our destruction. Our testimony is, we were deceived people trying to impose fallen beliefs on each other, fighting like cats and [...]

You can change a bad marriage simply by changing the habit patterns in your marriage and the wonderful thing is it doesn't take a long time. In a matter of days or weeks, you can have a new marriage simply by changing the patterns, the [...]

In every species of animal there's a dominator. There's an alpha male, there is some animal in that group of animals that is dominating the rest of them except for human beings. We, it violates us. It's always wrong, it always [...]

I wanna begin with a premise in this message and this is a very important premise in this message. We seek marriage for many reasons, but one of the most important is that we are all incomplete and unhealed and we're looking for a spouse to fix [...]

Matthew 18:18, "Assuredly I say to you whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven". Now, the word "Assuredly" there means an emphasis, Jesus saying "What I'm [...]

So what I want to talk about is being an honest family. And for every family member being able to communicate, because when you cannot communicate, you can't know each other. It's impossible to know a person you can't communicate [...]

What do you mean when you say you love your family? What do you mean by that? When you say "I love you" to your husband or to your wife, when you say you love your children or your grandchildren or your parents, what do you mean by that? [...]

I want to talk about several issues related to our minds being set free, and the first is understanding your mind as the battlefield of good and evil, and it is, and this is what Paul says in 2 Corinthians, a very important scripture. This is 2 [...]

The proof of Jesus being alive is he interacts with us. This is not a dead religion, of serving a statue or a deity that is somewhere out there but does not interact with us. Jesus interacts with us, so the proof that he's alive is that [...]

One day I was trying to pray. I don't know how long I had been saved, maybe a year or so, and I just knew I should wake up in the mornings and I should read my Bible and pray. Constantly battled being sleepy, constantly battled my mind [...]

The commandment "Do not fear" or "Fear not" is the number-one commandment in the Bible. God did not create us to live in fear. It's the opposite of the way that he created us. God created us to live in peace. When God [...]

The Word of God transforms our minds. It completely changes the way that we think, and therefore the way that we live, so in this message, we're going to talk about success and failure. The world has a way to think about success. We've got [...]

This message is called "I Changed My Mind About Worry and Anxiety". At the end of this message, I believe that you will not see worry and anxiety the same, nor will you experience it the same. That's my prayer. In Romans, chapter 12, [...]

This morning I want to talk to you about the 5 emotional facts of life, and these are things that are true for all of us. And the first is, life hurts. Just period. God never promised us a life without pain, he just promised us that he would be [...]

Welcome to "The Overcoming Life". I want to talk to you today about total freedom, being totally free in every area of our lives. It's a promise from Jesus. In John 8:36, Jesus said, "Therefore if the son makes you free, you [...]
