Welcome to Gateway Church's podcast. Wherever you're tuning in from, we hope you're encouraged by today's message.

Hello, Gateway!

Can I say it's a real privilege. I feel like I'm with family. Everybody stay standing.

I just love praying before bringing the Word of God. I do feel like I'm with family. You guys have

helped us to be able to resource. We've partnered together to now put over 60 million resources into

the hands of pastors and leaders literally all over the world. So I want to say thank you, thank you, thank you.

It's all because you have the most amazing leaders, Pastor Robert and Debbie Morris. And, you know,

So here's a recent picture of my family. Lisa and I have been married 41 years this year. She is my
