It's All In The Box | Pastor Gary Smith by City of Life Church

Today's sermon is The Yokes On You by Gary Hamrick Find more teaching from Pastor Gary at www.cornerstonechapel.net

Pride can subtly infiltrate every achievement and praise, persuading hearts to crown the self rather than Christ. In today's message, Pastor Gary will encourage you to pause to examine your motives, recognizing that inflated egos can often eclipse gratitude. Humility, however, can keep you teachable, receptive, and anchored in grace. Regular confession, service, and listening to wise counsel are antidotes that deflate arrogance before it hardens into isolation and spiritual stagnation.

“A thorn in the flesh” can be anything or anyone that causes you pain or suffering. Paul did not define exactly what his was, but it may have been physical affliction or external opposition. Either way, his "thorn" was painful and difficult, and he learned much from his trial as he persevered through it. How well do you handle the pain in your life? What is your “thorn in the flesh” and how should you persevere through it? Pastor Gary gives an encouraging word to help those who are going through trials in today's study from 2 Corinthians 12.

In the last week of the Wisdom for Dummies series at Cherry Hills Community Church, Pastor Gary Thomas focused on the value of self-control as a key part of living wisely. The message highlighted how self-control helps us make thoughtful decisions, resist impulsive behavior, and stay grounded in our faith. Drawing from biblical principles, Pastor Gary emphasized that self-control isn't about willpower alone, but about allowing God to shape our character through discipline and trust in Him. Practical examples encouraged listeners to reflect on areas of life—like speech, emotions, or habits—where more intentional restraint could lead to greater peace and purpose.

What if you could be the catalyst for change in someone's life today? In Pastor Gary's compelling sermon, he ignites a passion for missions and the vital role each of us plays in spreading the gospel. Drawing from John 20:21, Pastor emphasizes that Jesus commissioned us to continue His work, reminding us that our mission is not about us but about making Jesus known. He challenges the congregation to not just be a church with missions but a church of missions. During this sermon, we learn that taking action in world missions means understanding our responsibility—to share the gospel, pray for the lost, and generously support missionaries. As City United embarks on the On Mission series, Pastor Gary outlines exciting upcoming initiatives that will engage the community in missions both locally and globally. He leaves us with an urgent call to action: pray about our Faith Promise commitments to reach our $125,000 mission goal. Together, we can be vessels of hope, ensuring that the light of Christ pierces through the darkness in every corner of the globe. Will you take part in this transformative journey?

Trust forms the backbone of authentic discipleship; it means resting in the certainty that God fulfills every promise. In today's message, Pastor Gary will remind you that God's timing may stretch patience, yet His faithfulness never falters. Doubt whispers that circumstances speak louder, but persistence in prayer will tune your heart to anticipate His deliverance. Hold to His word like a lifeline, act in obedience, and watch Him weave outcomes richer than you dared imagine.

I got to witness Gary Burkins receiving a $100,000 check!!! Do I have your attention? In 2011, Pastor Gary woke up in the middle of the night from a super bizarre dream where he saw a check written out to his ministry signed by Pastor Troy Brewer. He couldn't shake the dream and decided to call Troy and let him know. It was one of the best phone calls he ever made because it got both men on the same page with what God was planning. Gary then drops gems about obedience and shares the story of how God asked him to put massive stones around his church. This was filmed at Launchbox Collective in Fort Worth Support the Show with a financial blessing below.

In 2 Corinthians 12, Paul spoke of a revelation of heaven that was too wonderful to describe in the third person so that he would not appear to be bragging. But there are more than 575 other passages in the Bible that describe heaven. Pastor Gary shares seven points about the “Hope of Heaven” and invites people to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior so that they can enjoy heaven for eternity after they die. Are you certain that you are going to heaven when you die? Join us for today's teaching so that you can be sure you are!

Even the smallest spark of faith can ignite Jesus' transformative power within us, reshaping horizons that once seemed immovable. In today's message, Pastor Gary will remind you that mustard-seed confidence in Jesus is enough to challenge towering doubts, lift burdens, and birth hope where despair clings. When you surrender your limitations to His limitless grace, obstacles crumble, paths open, and lives are renewed. Nurture that tiny trust; mountains yield to hearts anchored in His steadfast love.

What does it really mean to walk with God? In this message, Pastor Gary reminds us that the life we're called to is one of relationship—moving with God, not ahead of Him or behind. It's not about going through the motions or settling for empty religion, but about living in step with the Spirit. Walking with God means cultivating a life of prayer, communion, and conversation with Him. There's more for us when we learn to walk at His pace and follow where He's going. Recorded at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.

Pastor Gary draws a powerful parallel with the stories of early Christian martyrs, emphasizing their steadfast faith in the face of persecution as described in Hebrews 11. Through his exploration of Revelation 6, he addresses the cry for justice, pain, and suffering of those under the altar, urging the congregation to comprehend the true cost of discipleship. By reflecting on their sacrifices, Christians today can gain a deeper understanding of their spiritual heritage and the profound trust in God required during times of adversity. He encourages believers to seek a deeper relational reality with Christ that these martyrs possessed, pointing out that their unwavering commitment serves as a foundational example for today's faith journey.

Bible study with Pastor Gary terry of LCBC,

The good news of Jesus Christ will not reach all corners of the world if YOU do not share it! If we're too concerned with what others are doing wrong, and we're too busy telling everyone about people's business, then we will never have time to share about Jesus! In today's message, Pastor Gary will encourage you to stop wasting time and breath on what others are doing, and start utilizing the breath God has given you to share about His love! Share the miracle of the very breath in your lungs!!!

In light of the Texas flash-flood that claimed the lives of more than 120 people, including 36 children, many people are left with unanswered questions.  The most common question people ask when struck with tragedy of some kind is, “Why God?”  Have you ever asked God, “Why?”  Have you ever been through tragedy or suffering that has left you confused and wondering why God didn't seem to intervene?  In today's teaching, Pastor Gary addresses the hard questions people ask when facing tragedy, and offers hope and comfort.

The core of the sermon focused on the nature and deception of the Antichrist, as highlighted in biblical teachings. Pastor Gary referenced 1 John and other scriptures, articulating that while some believe the Antichrist to be a single future figure, others see him as a representation of ongoing evil throughout history. He highlighted the subtle nature of the Antichrist, who presents himself as an attractive alternative to Christ. Pastor Gary encouraged the congregation to practice discernment, illustrating how the true Christ is distinguished by sacrifice, symbolized by a "gash" marking his authenticity, unlike the counterfeit Antichrist.

Because of the obvious differences between light and darkness, it is easy to spot darkness and light in the world. Unfortunately it is a little harder to spot that in people's lives. God created it as so, He said the light was good and therefore we're to strive for light… for good! In today's message, Pastor Gary will show you how light and darkness effect people and just life in general, and how you can learn to spot that in people, places, and things. Knowing light from dark, good from evil, will help you thrive in all areas of life!

Pastor Gary explores Ezekiel 38 in light of recent world events, including the U.S. and Israel strikes on Iran's nuclear sites and Russia's growing alliance with Iran. What does the Bible say about these nations and their role in the end times? Discover how prophecy is unfolding before our eyes, why believers have hope, and how we can be prepared, not scared, as we await Christ's return.

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!!!

Are you ready to embrace your role as an everyday missionary? In this compelling finale to the “Reach” series, Pastor Gary ignites a powerful call to action rooted in Jesus's command to make disciples (Matthew 28). He reveals how ordinary individuals, much like the Apostle Paul and Barnabas, are pivotal in expanding God's kingdom beyond church walls and into everyday life. By examining Acts 14, he challenges us to view church planting not merely as an obligation but as a divine partnership that transforms lives and communities through the Gospel. As part of City United's ongoing mission, Pastor Gary emphasizes the importance of equipping saints and encouraging each other through the hardships of ministry. He beautifully illustrates this through stories of sacrificial giving and participation in community outreach. The message resonates deeply with those looking to make a tangible impact, reminding viewers that every small act of faith can lead to monumental change. Join us on this adventure of faith!

God wants to fill you with His presence and bless you with many gifts! When He does that, He wants you to share them with everyone! In today's message, Pastor Gary will share about the many blessings of Jesus and how they are direct proof of His love! Just as an apple tree doesn't eat its own fruit, but bears the fruit through much pruning and growth, so others can be blessed to eat it…you are the same way! You're gifts, the fruit you bear, are not for your own pleasure but to edify God's people!!!

Join special guest Pastor Gary Glasscock as he speaks on The Call - to discipleship! At New Promise Church you will see people of all ages, from a variety of backgrounds, and at different stages of their spiritual journey. We desire to draw closer to Jesus by understanding who He is and what He has done for us.

In his sermon, Pastor Gary encourages the congregation to embrace the mission of creating faith communities as a critical avenue for reaching others with the gospel. He emphasizes that many individuals nearby, including a lonely woman or an exhausted worker, are yearning for authentic connections, which churches have often overlooked while focusing on expanding their programs. Rather than waiting for people to come to church, Pastor Gary advocates for Christians to go where the people are, suggesting that everyday places like homes, sports fields, and parks can serve as vital contexts for building these faith communities. Pastor Gary defines a faith community as a group of people who collectively live out the teachings of the gospel through worship, fellowship, and mission. He draws insights from the early church in Acts, highlighting their miraculous, missional, mobilizing, and multiplying characteristics, which allowed them to grow rapidly by sharing their experiences of Christ. He challenges the congregation to take deliberate steps towards initiating, unifying, and reproducing these communities, emphasizing that everyone has a role to play in the mission. Ultimately, he invites listeners to recognize their own potential for impacting lives and transforming communities, encouraging them to step forward in faith to establish new circles of connection and support, thereby furthering the kingdom of God.

God has perfect timing that we will NEVER understand! In our minds, we can only comprehend (sometimes) what has happened or what is happening. God, on the other hand, can comprehend and plan what is to come! God can see the future and can plan it according to His perfect will! In today's message, Pastor Gary will encourage you as you may be worried about the future, past, or even present, remember that God is in control. God can undoubtedly plan and handle your past, present, and future!

In his sermon, Pastor Gary addresses the perceived erosion of traditional masculinity in modern culture, contrasting it with the biblical example set by Jesus Christ, who was both God and man. He encourages men to adopt a Christ-like masculinity, emphasizing the importance of patriarchal leadership that embodies humility, wisdom, and love. By urging men to "act like men" through being strong, alert, and steadfast in their faith, Pastor Gary offers practical advice such as nurturing family relationships, providing spiritual guidance, honoring parents, embracing vulnerability, and learning from failures. The message ultimately underscores the importance of fatherly presence and guidance, all rooted in the love and authority of Christ.

In his sermon, Pastor Gary emphasizes the importance of discipleship and the role each individual plays in the Great Commission given by Jesus in Matthew 28. He articulates that evangelism is not merely about making converts but about growing other disciples, encouraging congregants to recognize their purpose in reaching out to their unique circles of influence. Pastor Gary introduces the key takeaway: "a true disciple builds more disciples." He stresses that real discipleship involves reproducing leaders who can further spread the message of Jesus, urging listeners to actively identify and mentor potential leaders. Pastor Gary outlines a strategy for developing leaders that consists of three key points: identifying potential leaders, investing in their growth, and implementing reproducible methods. He insists on the necessity of prayer and discernment in selecting faithful individuals to train. He also highlights the need for creating relational environments where authentic discipleship can flourish, likening it to watering a plant to help it grow. Moreover, he calls for practical steps, such as starting simple discipleship groups and guiding individuals through a growth pathway, reminding the congregation that they were not saved to sit idle but to be sent out to make a significant impact in their communities. Throughout the sermon, Pastor Gary reinforces that effective leadership development is essential for fulfilling the mission of the church in spreading the Gospel.

Ever feel like you don't belong, like life's pushed you to the margins? In today's message, Pastor Gary discusses Mark 5:19, when Jesus frees a man from demons—a man so broken, his community shunned him, leaving him to dwell only among graves. Yet Jesus saw him, delivered him, and said, “Go home.” Home! To a place he'd been exiled from. Jesus doesn't just heal; He gives you a place again. Are you carrying wounds that make you feel alienated? Will you let Jesus bring you back to hope?

In this episode, Pastor Gary kicks off our summer teaching series from the book of Proverbs titled "Get Smart!" Each sermon will focus on a different area of our life addressed by Proverbs. This first teaching gives an overview of the book and explores the subject of Wisdom: What is it, Why is it important, and How do we get it? 

Focusing on the significance of Pentecost, Pastor Gary explained it as a catalyst for personal spiritual renewal through the power of the Holy Spirit. He drew parallels with Kodak's failure to innovate, illustrating the necessity for individuals to remain open to transformation and growth, both explosively and gradually. He urged the congregation to view Pentecost as an opportunity for a personal paradigm shift and the beginning of a new season with God.

Are you stuck in your own daily grind, wondering if there's a bigger purpose? In today's message, Pastor Gary brings up Peter, Andrew, James, and John—four ordinary fishermen. They're like countless others, grinding through backbreaking labor. Their lives were mundane, weighed down by nets and sweat, until Jesus called them to something greater. Jesus saw their potential. What's holding you back from answering His call? Will you keep casting nets, or step out toward His purpose?

Pastor Gary's sermon centers on the importance of wisdom, particularly as it relates to understanding and applying God's Word in everyday life. He emphasizes that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, illustrating that true wisdom necessitates a reverence for God and deep humility. Pastor Gary emphasizes that wisdom is not merely an intellectual pursuit but rather involves discernment, character, and ethical integrity. He shares insights into how wisdom transcends mere common sense by being rooted in a spiritual and moral context

In today's message, Pastor Gary discusses Luke 4, where it says Jesus preached with astonishing power—not a passive glow, but an active, life-altering force that gripped hearts. It's like the spark to a wildfire, it changes everything. Are you chasing that kind of impact in your faith? Is your goal to be effective for God, no matter the crowd? Jesus' doctrine hit hard because it carried divine power. What's your aim today—to shift lives or chase fleeting praise? Whose heart will you ignite with His truth?

Founder's Day | Pastor Gary Smith by City of Life Church

There are different versions of Jesus in our world, both secular and religious, but there is only one true Jesus of the Bible. In today's teaching, Pastor Gary discusses the different versions of Jesus in the world and why we must know the one true and only Jesus Christ.

Join Pastor Gary on this Memorial Day Sunday as he guides the Church in remembering the 'Spiritual Warriors' who paved the way for us. He honors the sacrifices of over 600,000 men, women, and youth who died for freedom, paralleling their sacrifice to Christ's ultimate act of love. Pastor Gary stresses the significance of commemorating fallen soldiers and early Christians who faced persecution for their faith. He highlights the courage of these believers under rulers like Emperor Domitian and challenges us to see their legacy as part of our spiritual heritage. Referencing Matthew 5:10-12, he reminds us that following Christ includes enduring trials. From Hebrews 12:1-2, he encourages us to persevere, surrounded by a cloud of witnesses. He honors those in his ministry, "fallen soldiers" of faith, who have shaped lives through their prayers and service.

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.

Did you know that giving is one of the Christian disciplines like faith, speech, knowledge, diligence, and love for others? That's exactly what Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 8:7. The Bible has more than 2,300 verses about money and material things. Jesus spoke more about money than He spoke about faith and prayer combined. In today's study, Pastor Gary shares five principles of generous giving from 2 Corinthians 8–9.

A special message from Pastor Gary Hamrick in Corinth.

In celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Pastor Gary contrasts two gardens in the Bible—the first garden where sin entered the human race, and the second garden where forgiveness came for the human race. This contrast and many others highlight the finished work of Jesus Christ through His death, burial, and resurrection. Follow along as we study out of John 19-20 and give praise to our risen Lord!
