Pastor Gary continues our Series Titled "Refill" with a sermon titled "Uneven Exchange."
Jesus tells us that there is no other way to get to Heaven except through Him. Our good works alone cannot atone for our sins. Pastor Gary reminds us today that even if we spend our time telling others about Jesus, but don't have a relationship with Him, we will be left on the outside looking in. We have to ask Jesus to forgive us of our sins, and allow Him into our lives so that the Holy Spirit can make us into new creations. Our good works don't give us access to God's presence; Jesus does!
Here Me Out (Waiting on the World To Change) Pastor Gary Smith | COOL Church CREATED OUT OF LOVE
In this message, Pastor Gary speaks about the Spirit of God's communication with believers and offers a panoramic view of the Book of Ephesians. He shares on the concept of being sealed with the Holy Spirit, the significance of mercy and grace. From the resurrection of Christ, our operating orders must be from heaven's point of view. God has given us power in Jesus' name through His Holy Spirit to exercise God's will on earth. In this talk, we look at the workmanship of God, the dispensing of gifts and callings, and the act of resigning as chairman of the board of your life.TakeawaysThe importance of understanding the communication of the Spirit of GodThe significance of exercising God's will on earthChapters00:00 The Spirit of God's Communication05:10 The Book of Ephesians: A Panoramic View10:38 The Resurrection of Christ18:45 Exercising Heaven's Will on Earth25:31 The Dispensing of Gifts and Callings45:00 Resigning as Chairman of the BoardRecorded live at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.#ephesians #God'sWill #communication #letGod #gifts #perspective

Pastor Gary continues our series "Refill" with a sermon titled " Rythyms of Refreshment".
What would have happened to the world if Jesus had decided not to go through with the Crucifixion? After all, the people who mocked Jesus as He hung on the cross had a point! At any time, Jesus could have said, “Actually, never mind!” and disappeared without fulfilling the task He had been sent to accomplish. Pastor Gary teaches you today that Jesus paid a high price for your salvation, and you owe a great debt that cannot be paid back. What Jesus asks for in return is your obedience and your faith.

In this message from our Still They Speak series, Pastor Gary explores the remarkable story of Ittai the Gittite (2 Samuel 15). At the lowest point of David's life, when many abandoned him, Ittai chose to stay. His unwavering commitment provides a powerful picture of faithfulness in a culture that often values convenience over covenant.Together we discover how Ittai's example points us to Jesus, who is the perfectly loyal Friend and Savior, and challenges us to remain faithful to Christ, devoted to our families, and committed to our church family.A timely message about loyalty, friendship, faithfulness, and the God who never abandons His people.
Our world is influenced by what Paul calls “the traditions of men” and “the basic principles of this world” that are often contrary to Scripture. The worldly influence threatens a person's walk with Christ, and more broadly, the Church itself. What were the things of Paul's day that he was warning the church at Colosse about, and how does this translate to what threatens the Church today? Pastor Gary mentions the cultural issues, but focuses primarily on the worldly philosophies and aberrant doctrines that have slipped into the Church.
There are many times in the Gospels where Jesus teaches us to follow His example. He teaches us how to pray, how to spread the Good News, and most importantly, how to serve others with a sacrificial heart. Pastor Gary teaches you today that in order to serve Jesus, you must be willing to submit yourself to serving those around you. The Lord doesn't want you to serve others from a place of superiority, but from a place of humility, remembering that they are a beloved child of God, just like you!

Everyone is touched by suffering to some degree at some point in their lives. It is the natural result of living in a sin-filled world with pain and sorrow. Some even question the God's existence or goodness because they wonder how a good God could allow such pain and suffering in the world. Pastor Gary addresses these questions and offers encouragement in today's message to those who are suffering.
Pastor Gary reminds us about how good Jesus is.
Paul faced trials and persecution, but was still able to walk boldly with unwavering faith. What gave him that courage wasn't his own strength, but the love of Christ working through him. Pastor Gary teaches you today that when you truly understand Christ's love, fear begins to lose its grip on you. Paul trusted that whatever God allowed in his life was an expression of His love, not His rejection. Even in the face of death, he believed that the Lord's plan was good. And that same assurance is available to you.

In this message, Pastor Gary delves into the revelation from the book of Isaiah 66, emphasizing God's perspective on the house built for Him and His joy in the humble. It explores the story of King David, the power of repentance, and the parable of the prodigal sons, highlighting the father's love and acceptance. The indwelling power of the Holy Spirit and the call to surrender and submit to God's leading is explored.TakeawaysGod's joy is found in the humble and contrite heart.God desires us to live submitted to His direction.Forgiveness and empowered transformation happen as we humble ourselves in service to Him.Chapters00:00 The Revelation of Isaiah06:54 The Story of King David23:20 The Parable of the Prodigal Sons31:14 The Father's Love and Acceptance39:50 The Indwelling Power of the Holy SpiritRecorded live at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.#humility #pride #brokenness #God #forgiveness #joy #isaiah #david #repent #humble #heart
Join us as Pastor Gary teaches us how God speaks with clarity, peace, and direction, despite the other voices of fear, pressure, emotions, and outside influences all competing for our attention. As we look at Elijah’s journey, we can learn how to recognize God’s still, small voice above all the others when we need Him most.

So many spiritual battles can take place in our minds and hearts. The devil's whispers can make us question everything we thought we knew. This is how a crisis of faith can begin - subtle, quiet, and deeply unsettling. But today, Pastor Gary tells you that the enemy often targets your weakest places first, trying to make you feel powerless and alone. The devil presents ideas that sound reasonable on the surface, but stand in direct opposition to God's truth. Stand firm in God's Word and let His truth be louder than any lie.
250 years ago, the Continental Congress called the 13 colonies to “prayer, fasting, and humiliation” just weeks prior to the Revolutionary War. Today, on that anniversary, Pastor Gary reminds us of America's Christian heritage and encourages us to stand firm in our faith and to maintain those Christian principles.
Just as the Roman double-edged sword was crafted never to waste a single moment, so too is the Word of God designed to accomplish exactly what it was sent to do. Pastor Gary teaches you today that God's word is not passive. It is active, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. It cuts away fear, doubt, and lies, while planting truth, hope, and life in their place. This is the beauty of God's precision… He knows exactly what needs to be removed and what must remain in your life.
Today's sermon is How To Make Wise Decisions by Gary Hamrick Find more teaching from Pastor Gary at www.cornerstonechapel.net
There are many thoughts and perceptions about who Jesus is. Different people believe different things about Him. Each world religion presents Him differently. But what does the Bible say? Who is Jesus according to Scripture? In today's study, Pastor Gary contrasts Jesus with other religions and shares five points about the true identity of Jesus from Colossians 1:15–18.
The answer is always Jesus. In every struggle and every victory, His name carries the power to restore and transform. Our old selves may linger, but through faith, we are crucified with Christ and raised into a new life. Today, Pastor Gary gives you an analogy that God is like a master surgeon. He gently removes what does not belong, drawing you closer to His truth. This process may not be easy, but it is always filled with purpose and love. And even in your weakness, His strength always shines through.
We don't want to miss an opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Sometimes, people who need to hear it are right under our noses. It may be the person begging for money on the street corner, the family you know who's dealing with medical debt, or a coworker who mentioned a difficult divorce. Whatever the circumstances, you have the greatest truth of all! In today's message, Pastor Gary encourages you to abandon your preconceived notions. Be bold for Christ and let God take care of the rest.
In week three of the Asking for a Friend series, Gary explores the deep desire we all have to live a life that matters and challenges how we often misunderstand purpose and calling. It shows how some people chase significance in the wrong ways, while others hold back because they don't believe they have anything meaningful to offer. Instead of either extreme, we're invited to shift our focus toward what truly matters: aligning our lives with God's priorities and trusting Him with the outcome. Through both encouragement and challenge, the message reminds us that purpose isn't found in big, visible moments, but in everyday faithfulness. In the end, it calls us to simply use what we've been given to love and serve others right where we are.
We're to be the hands and feet of Jesus on this earth. He's no longer present physically, so we need to listen to the Holy Spirit within us to bless others according to their needs. Today, Pastor Gary reminds us that it's more than a handout. People first and foremost need the Word of God. So if you're given the opportunity to bless someone tangibly, also take the time to bless them spiritually. A relationship with Jesus will take them to eternity, versus one meal that will only take them to the next meal.

The Bible explains the existence of two kingdoms—the kingdom of LIGHT and the kingdom of DARKNESS. Every person in the world belongs to one of those kingdoms. Pastor Gary describes the territory of those kingdoms and what defines them. They are not earthly kingdoms, but they are real, spiritual dominions. The question is, to which kingdom do you belong?
Have you ever put together a new piece of furniture from a box store? You're excited to have it displayed in your home, but first comes the instruction manual. You take out all the parts, the flimsy little tool they provide, and begin at step one. But by the time you get to step 15, you're taking shortcuts, ignoring leftover pieces, and have since discarded the instruction manual altogether. Today, Pastor Gary encourages you to do the opposite with God's Word. Hold it close! It's not just words on a page!
It sounds spiritual, but it's not new and it's not harmless.Christians are chasing “special knowledge” instead of standing on God's Word and it's leading to confusion and division inside the Church.Pastor Gary Hamrick joins me to talk about why this is happening and how to stay anchored in truth when everything else feels loud and convincing.Show mentions: http://heidistjohn.com/mentionsWebsite | heidistjohn.comSupport the show! | donorbox.org/donation-827Rumble | rumble.com/user/HeidiStJohnYoutube | youtube.com/@HeidiStJohnPodcastInstagram | @heidistjohnFacebook | Heidi St. JohnX | @heidistjohnFaith That Speaks Online CommunitySubmit your questions for Fan Mail Friday | heidistjohn.com/fanmailfriday

Human nature is generally discontent. We crave things that are newer and better, the latest and greatest. Companies launch major ad campaigns to convince customers and clients that their products or services are “new and improved.” After all, who wants “old and familiar”? But the Bible cautions against always desiring something better and instead encourages us to be content no matter the circumstances. Find out in today's study how to be content in a discontent world as Pastor Gary walks us through the closing verses of the book of Philippians.

Many people believe that Jesus existed. Many even believe that He did miracles, died, and rose from the dead. Yet still, many might wonder, “Why is this relevant to me?” In today's message, Pastor Gary offers four reasons why the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus should matter to you. If you've ever wondered how God could love, forgive, and save you, you will be encouraged by today's message from John 20.
Pastor Gary Hamrick joins Mike Slater to explore the resurrection of Jesus and what it really means for our lives today. If this event is true, it doesn't just shape history—it changes everything about truth, hope, and the way we see the world. This is more than a story… it's a claim that demands a response.

Is your name written in the Book of Life? The Book of Life is mentioned eight times in the New Testament (once in Philippians and seven times in Revelation). The Bible teaches that this book lists all the names of people who are going to spend eternity in heaven with Jesus. If your name is not in the book, you will be denied access to heaven. So how can you be sure your name will be listed in the Book of Life? Find out in today's study from Philippians 4 with Pastor Gary.

Most people pursue things that bring them happiness or pleasure in this lifetime: accomplishments, awards, degrees, rank, money, likes and followers. But at the end of the day, nothing compares to knowing Jesus! In Philippians 3, Paul wrote about all his many accomplishments and accolades that he achieved in his lifetime, but he said it was all “rubbish” (dung) compared to the excellence of knowing Christ! Do you know Jesus? There's a difference between knowing “about” Jesus and knowing Him personally. Pastor Gary explains this in today's study titled, “Nothing Compares to Jesus!”
