For Jesus

This week, we wanted to just give you all a quick encouragement from John 11 and a song recommendation! We will see you next time!

Song: Goodness of God by Bethel Music

Our special guest this week, a senior at ASU Prep High School, Emma Meyers talks through what student ministry meant for her life in high school, her future plans in college and after, and how her personal relationship with Christ has grown over the years. We hope you enjoy this episode, we will see you next week! 

In this episode, we are joined by someone you may or may not know, Mark Burns. Once a missionary in Turkey and now a staff member here at Gateway, we are grateful to have Mark share his story with us. As a bonus, we have another music recommendation from Joshua Ruiz at the end. We hope you enjoy this episode!

In this episode, we are joined by Nicole Arend, who shares her personal story on how God's goodness and grace flooded into her life when she needed it the most. We hope you are blessed by this episode. This episode does contain serious topics including depression and suicide, listener discretion is advised. 

This week, we are joined by Marty and Mary McIntire where they share their incredible stories individually and how God brought them together and is continuing to work in them and through them. We hope you enjoy their story! If you have a story you would like to share, let us know and we would love to have you on the podcast!

In today's episode, Joni Stockton blesses us by talking about her and her family, her experiences on the prayer team at Gateway, and what retirement has looked like for her and her husband. We hope you enjoy getting to know Joni, and we will see you next week!

Dave Lopez became a Christian around nine years ago, and it’s changed everything about his life. He shares his story of coming to Christ and talks about how he seeks to partner with Jesus in mission as a firefighter and 6th-grade mentor. Plus, Alessi reminds us of something important and Ruiz makes a music recommendation.

Alessi, Joshua, and Luke are back with the first episode of season two! The crew introduces a new format: First, Joshua shares “a thing you gotta know” — and it’s really important! Then, “a conversation” about how we approach this season of rebuilding as a church. Finally, Alessi shares “a music recommendation” that will make you bob your head. Enjoy!

A tradition here at Gateway is having an "Ask Anything" Sunday where you all text in questions and we candidly answer those questions to the best of our ability live on stage. This year, we had over 90 unanswered questions!! In this episode, we get to about 30 of those leftover questions. We hope you enjoy this rapid-fire style Q&A!

From our Covenant Membership Packet Article 22: “Can I call someone by their preferred pronoun when it differs from their biological sex?” We believe this is up to the conscience of the individual. For a “yes” perspective, see, “What Pronouns Should Christians Use for Transgender People?” by Greg Coles (available at www.centerforfaith.com). For a “no,” see, “He, She, Ze, Zir: Navigating Pronouns” by Andrew T. Walker (available at www.erlc.com).

In the last episode of 2020, Alessi sits down with Sean Wilcoxson to talk about their favorite episodes of the podcast so far, take-aways from 2020, and what they hope for 2021. We hope you enjoy this episode, and we will see you again in early 2021! Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!
