Hey everybody I am so grateful to be with you all this weekend.

Hello to all campuses.

I love my gateway family and I'm excited about this contribution I get to make

to this series, Love Thy Neighbor. And so we're talking about some things that may be uncomfortable for you, but I think we're going to grow as a result.

And there's some resources that we have available for you around what we're dealing with as it relates to racism and

injustice. You can go to gatewaypeople.com slash unity and you can hear testimonials stories from people and get a fuller picture of how you can help us extend the love of Christ to all people.

So if you have your Bibles, I want you to open them to Ephesians chapter number two.

The book of Ephesians chapter number two.

I want to read 14 through 18 in your hearing and then I'll give you

the title of the message and then we'll pray, okay? So Ephesians chapter number

two starting at the 14th verse it says this, for Christ himself has brought peace to us

United Jews and Gentiles and to one people win in his own body on the cross he broke down the wall of hostility that separated us.

He did this by ending the system of law with its commandments and regulations.

He made peace between Jews and Gentiles by creating in himself one new people from the two groups.

Together as one body, Christ reconciled both groups to God by means of his death on the cross and our

hostility toward each other was put to death.

He brought this good news of peace to you Gentiles who were far away from

him and peace to the Jews who were near. Now all of us can come to the Father through the same Holy Spirit because of what Christ has done for

us.

So good.

And so if you're taking notes on this message, the title of this message is, is there one?

It's a question I want to answer today. is there one?
