In this week's message from our Failure to Thrive series, Pastor Gary explores why so many of us struggle to live with the joy God intended for His children. Just as physical growth can stall when a child experiences “failure to thrive,” our spiritual growth can falter when we lack proper emotional health.Jesus said in John 16:24, “Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.” The normal Christian life is meant to be one filled with joy, peace, and growth in the fruit of the Spirit. But what happens when sadness or discouragement becomes our constant state?Pastor Gary helps us see that God is daily inviting us into a life of joy—through simple moments, His creation, and His promises. Drawing on stories, Scripture, and even the playful “Di Da Day” dance of a child, we are reminded that joy is not something we stumble into but something we train for under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Gary's sermon focused on the necessity of radical honesty and prioritizing one's relationship with Christ above all else, as illustrated in Matthew chapter 10. He used the metaphor of life beyond physical birth to emphasize the transformation required through spiritual rebirth. Pastor Gary encouraged maintaining an authentic prayer life, describing the "prayer closet" as a sacred space for honest dialogue with God that transcends worldly influences and personal biases. He emphasized that true peace from Christ is active, compelling believers to engage in battling the injustices and sufferings of others. The sermon culminated with a call to integrate this deep devotion into every aspect of life, encouraging the congregation to approach communion by acknowledging personal hurts and committing to Christ's mission of reconciliation and love.

Sometimes Christians are reluctant to be bold in their faith for fear of what others may think. Even the apostle Peter briefly fell into this trap, and Paul had to confront him about his hypocrisy. “Quiet Christianity” is when you act one way around some people, and a different way around other people who do not share your beliefs. In today's study, Pastor Gary gives us steps to overcome “quiet Christianity” so that we can be bold and courageous in our faith.

What if every decision you make is shaping the destiny God designed for you? In his message, "Chasing Destiny", Pastor Gary unpacks how we each have a unique, God-given destiny—and how God wants to be part of that process. Every choice gives birth to something, and He's working within us to develop the wisdom and maturity we need to walk in His purpose. When we trust Him with the process, we begin to live in the fullness of the future He's planned. Recorded at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.

Submission is one of the most forgotten and misunderstood things in christianity. Oftentimes people are weary because it has been misrepresented and abused, so we shy away from it for obvious reasons. In today's message, Pastor Gary will share the biblical definition of submission and how God intended it from the start. Submission isn't just rolling over and doing whatever someone says, it is recognizing godly leadership and following who God has appointed in your life!!!

Have you ever felt agitated without cause, discouraged without reason, or tempted beyond usual? Have you ever had senseless bickering with your spouse, or weird misunderstandings with a friend? These can be examples of spiritual attacks that we all go through. There are spiritual forces of evil at war with spiritual forces of good over us in the unseen realm, which is just as real as the material, physical world in which we live even though we often are unaware of the battle we are in. Today, Pastor Gary teaches about the weapons of our warfare that are available for us to fight these battles.
