LIFEGATE DENVER SERMONS

<p>Enjoy this message as Pastor Nirup unpacks what it means to love God, and love your neighbor. It's a incredible and sacrificial love, and one that the Father is calling us to.</p>

<p>The Work Of The Father is a work of redemption, driven by restoration through Jesus Christ. Pastor Mike Drury from Pine Hills Community Church brought the word this week, and it was a powerful one.</p>

<p>In order to live in the way of the kingdom, we must live in alignment with the way of God. Enjoy this message by Pastor Nirup Alphonse as he teaches on how we can discover what God has revealed to us, and in turn live in alignment with his will.</p>

<p>The earliest followers of Jesus were not yet known as Christians. Instead they were known as the "people of the Way." In this opening message to the series, Pastor Nirup unpacks what it looks like to discover and live in the reality of God's Kingdom.</p>

<p>As Dallas Willard once said, "Hurry is the great enemy of the soul." On this Sabbath Sunday we encourage you to find some time to slow down and experience the presence of the Lord in your life.</p>

<p>What if what happened two thousand years ago could do more than just give us a fun holiday season? What if what God started then could have a lasting effect in your life. In this Christmas message Pastor Nirup teaches from God's Word on the reality of an eternal joy that God came to bring into your life.</p>

<p>There is nothing greater than having an encounter with God and experiencing His grace in your life. But it doesn't stop there. God invite your to express what you have experienced. In this message, Pastor Nirup shares from John 4 on how a woman experienced the grace of Jesus and went on to share it with everyone around her.</p>

<p>In John 4 Jesus has an incredible encounter with a woman that he should not have culturally engaged. In this moment Jesus teaches us to "life our eyes" and see people all around us. In this message we are invited to see the vision that Jesus is creating.</p>

<p>In Matthew 28, Jesus commanded the 11 disciples to go make disciples of all the earth. LIFEGATE's Young Professional ministry director, Trevor Maggart, shows us how this command from Jesus revealed a new reality for how we are to relate to God.</p>

<p>Pastor Nirup teaches on some of the different viewpoints on baptism and what we at Lifegate believe to be true about the practice of baptism.</p>

<p>In Luke 10, Jesus called us to work in His harvest. Pastor Nirup unpacks this command from Jesus and shows us that God has told us to always be ready to engage in the mission.</p>

<p>God commanded us to go make disciples and no matter what season of life we are in, He has prepared a harvest for us to take part in. Pastor Nirup launched LIFEGATE's new series "Always in Season" so that we would be reminded that God has put us on this Earth to know Him and to make Him known to all people.</p>

<p>When God sets us free He calls us out of sin but also calls us into a life of following Him. In this we find that our identity in freedom leads to action. In this message, our StudentLife Lead Andrew Morrison shares a powerful message about the freedom we have to serve others.</p>

<p>The Holy Spirit seeks to bring about the character of Jesus in our everyday interactions. As we become more free and more like Jesus, we demonstrate faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control so that others can see Jesus in us. Pastor Nirup finishes his teaching series "Wild and Free" by talking about these three fruits of the Spirit.</p>

<p>God puts His Spirit inside of us to bring about the character of Jesus in our lives. And He uses that change in us to multiply His glory on this earth. LIFEGATE Campus Pastor, Jim Barnard, unpacks how God uses patience, kindness, and goodness to plant seeds in others for that multiplication.</p>

<p>We were created to experience the wildness of God through freedom. Through the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross, God has made a way for His Spirit to live in us so that He can produce the fruit that he wants in our life. The choice to walk according to the Spirit, however, is ours. Until we choose to live in the Spirit, we won't ever be completely free.</p>
