Love is often misunderstood creating misconceptions due to our negative experiences. We must face the difficult questions such as, can I be loved? How do I prove I'm worthy? How do I receive love and how do I love others? We find the answers as we Enter His Gates and find the missing link.

Happiness has always been a constant pursuit and highly sought out for. Unfortunately the target is always moving. When Jesus is the source we can experience happiness and the inexpressible joy of the Lord. Ending the pursuit of happiness is the beginning of the relationship with the Lord.

Should good things only happen to good people and bad things happen to bad people? In "Bend But Don't Break" we look at how Jesus responds to the belief that bad things happen to only those who miss the mark and how misleading it is along with the implications. We learn from Jesus' interaction with the woman suffering from the spirit of infirmity mentioned in Luke 13:10-17.

As Christians we are not called to settle for mediocrity but to excel and go above and beyond. Jesus gave us the example of how and why we should go the extra mile. The goal is to live our life seeking and reflecting an excellent spirit and God's favor over us.

In Pt.4 of "On My Way, (Isaiah 55:8-11) we breakdown the steps towards internal healing. There is no way around or over, just through it. As we walk through Jesus walks with us. "When Healing Happens" is more about how. Healing happens as we face the vulnerable areas with humility, obedience and submission.  Connect with City Gates Church: Visit our Website: CityGatesChurchhtx.com Instagram: @citygateshtx To partner with this ministry and help us continue reaching others around the world,  click here: City Gates Church/giving

In John 5:1-15, we learn from a man that was ill for 38 yrs until Jesus notices him and his condition. Before he heals him he asked him, "Do you want to be made well?" Jesus not only healed his external infirmity but also his soul internally. We get accustomed to things being just the way they are that we don't see a better way. Jesus wants to heal us completely making us whole. Jesus is the Way the Truth and the Life and provides us with "A Better Way."

In Pt.2 of the series On My Way, we see how Saul's plans were divinely interrupted by the Lord and how God met him in the middle of the road headed to Damascus. Saul later learned that God's plans were greater. When God is at work in our life it looks messy in the middle. As we stay faithful we see that God is willing to meet us where we are and give us the strength to make it in the middle.

As we make our way towards an answered prayer there are things that God addresses on the way. God wants to bless us and wants us to sustain the blessing. Our faith is affirmed, heart is healed and joy is recovered on the way. See how God goes above and beyond in our life as we continue our journey with him. You may not be there yet, but you're well on your way.

In closing to the series "Navigating Overseas", we hope to see in ourselves and in others what Jesus sees in all of us. Shame and condemnation narrows our perspective as we overlook God's will for us. The scenario doesn't have to change when we see what Jesus sees.

In Pt.3 of Navigating Overseas we are encouraged to take another look at our situations from a different perspective. One of the many things we over see is another vantage point. When God is working it doesn't always look clear in the beginning but what God begins he also completes perfectly and on time. Take another look, God has the final word.

In Pt.2 of Navigating Overseas we take a deeper look into the areas of our life that we tend to oversee. It is often the commonly overlooked areas that require the most attention.

Part 1 of "Navigating Overseas" we take a look at 2Corinthians 3:12-18 and things we tend to overlook in our life. Things we overlook can have both positive and negative repercussions.

In My Father’s House Pt.3, John 2:13-22. God has always desired to dwell among us. Since sin caused a separation, God has attempted to bridge the gap. We were designed originally to dwell in God’s presence, destined to dwell with God and through Jesus we are invited to dwell in personal relationship. He continues to seek us and has prepared an eternal dwelling place in our Father’s House.

Pt.3 of More Than Enough. We begin at 1Kings 17:8-16 as we face the truth that more of anything is not always the solution. We discuss how God always does more with less. Sometimes doing less in our life produces more. As we lean into God with less, He takes out not enough and makes it more than enough.

Pt.2 of More Than Enough. We begin at Haggai 1:3-11 as we face the fleeting desires of life. We discuss the limitations of operating from a scarce mentality, the need for control when demand is high and the things we run too when we lose focus of our purpose. There is still hope as God calls us back to rebuild and restore our life.
