LIFEGATE DENVER SERMONS

<p>What if the joy you are longing to experience is directly connected to the work God has called you to participate in? This work is not about your own success but about the advancement of the Kingdom of God, and when we walk in this calling the result is living in an unshakeable joy.</p>

<p>Ruth | Week 4</p><p><br></p><p>The story of Ruth finally comes to an end and unlike modern romance stories of our day, this story is ultimately not about the lives of the character. Rather, in this narrative we see that ways in which God is faithful to restore a broken people back to Himself. We are a lost and broken people constantly looking for someone or something to redeem us. The good news of the Bible, and what we see in this story is the way in which God moves on our behalf and brings us into life with Him.</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>Ruth Series | Week 3</p><p><br></p><p>As we move further in the story, we continue to see the character of God and His faithfulness displayed. The story continues to use this small struggling family as the backdrop for the way in which God works in the lives of those who love Him. This third chapter has remnants and takes us back to the moment in the garden when Adam sees Eve; there are clues pointing towards the final redemption in Christ. The key to this chapter is seeing how burdens (for example what Boaz gives Ruth) is a blessing. God is always leading His people into greater blessing (Psalm 119:1) in what often initially feels like a burden. </p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>In the second chapter we are introduced to another main character who points towards the revelation of Christ Himself. One of the keys in the story that is revealed in this chapter is the way in which God is always working behind the scenes. The author reminds us that while the presence of God is real to the characters, His purpose still remains hidden. We can trust in a God who has been the same and is unchanging because of the nature of His character. We see through Boaz the way in which God works – he gives bread, wine, safety and protection – His mercies are truly new every morning. What seemed like a story that would end in tragedy now has the beginning marks of God’s faithful turnaround. </p>

<p>In the first chapter we are introduced right away to the context that sets the stage for the entire story. Our main characters find themselves living in a time where people are living as they please in rebellion words God. During a time of drought, in the land God had promised them a decision was made to take control and go to a place outside the promise of God. The story begins with out characters not trysting God. Yet, the word we find throughout the first chapter is "shut" which means to "return." The entire first chapter sets the theme of the story and what it means to return to God's grace – even in our sin and rebellion we see the evidence of God's grace as He draws us back to Himself. </p>

<p>People of the Book | Week 3</p><p><br></p><p>The Bible is the story of God inviting humanity to know Him and become who He has called us to be. The Bible then is not just any book, but the eternal Word of God that is essential in our spiritual formation. The aim of the Christian life is not to do “Christian things” but to be transformed into the likeness of Christ. The Scriptures invite us to see what it means to live this life and points us to the One who empowers us</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>The Good News | Message 3</p><p><br></p><p>On Palm Sunday the people gathered and expressed their worship to King Jesus. This was a significant event because it captures our motivation for evangelism. While people being lost and far from good should break our hearts, our real motivation is that God deserves the worship of all people. Every nation, and all people must worship Him for He is worthy, and “the Father is seeking those who will worship Him in Spirit and the truth.”</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>Stories are the most powerful way to change a culture. In fact, whoever tells a better story shapes the culture. As followers of Jesus, we are invited to share not only the story of the resurrection but the story of God in our own lives. In order for this to happen we must see that we are Deployed with a Mission, Direction with an Invitation, and Dependent on God’s power. We must see that God doesn’t choose us because He is limited in His options but He is gracious in His invitation.</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>In the Scriptures we see that God has designed and defined what marriage is. It is a holy institution where two people are united with Christ and one another. While this sounds romantic it is in fact a collision of two opposing forces now joined together to form one new partnership. Marriage by God’s design is the grace of living in the truest intimacy with another person that requires the deepest level of sacrificial love and faithfulness first to Christ and then to one another.</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.

<p>Sacred Marriage | Message 1</p><p>Marriage is not a human institution. It is a gift given to humanity from God. As such God has designed marriage to reflect His covenant love. In the way that Christ gave up His life for His bride and His bride lives in the purity of that holiness, so marriage is a reflection of the Gospel. In marriage we witness the sacred and powerful union of the resurrection life.</p><p><br></p><p>Connection Card <a href="https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xNwrw8</a></p><p>Subscribe To Our Channel <a href="https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2xSJgW8</a></p><p><br></p><p>To Support Our Ministry By Giving So We Can Continue To Reach More People With The Message Of Jesus <a href="https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://pushpay.com/g/lifegatechurch</a></p><p><br></p><p>To See People Made Alive In Christ - The Vision of LIFEGATE Church.
