Christine Caine - Gifting vs. Anointing
“A gift will fill a room, but the anointing breaks yokes, chains, and bondages.” - Christine Caine
God doesn’t need to discover you, He created you. Allow Him to take you into the secret place and forge you into the image of Christ before you step onto the stage. The degree to which you allow God to work inside of you is the degree to which He will do His work through you.
Francis Chan - The Power of a Quiet Life
In this message, Francis Chan urges us to radically redefine ambition, advocating for a life of quiet humility, diligent work, and personal integrity - a stark contrast to society's louder, more self-centered paths.
“Aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.” (1 Thessalonians 4:11-12)
Allan Malloy - Pentecostal Fire
In this message, Pastor Allan preaches a message about the day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was poured out on the church. There are spiritual implications and applications that we must make in our present day. This message is about how we should engage and interact with the Holy Spirit in our daily lives, and in our worship.
Aaron Keys - Is Worship Leading A Spiritual Gift
In this message, Worship Leader Aaron Keys asks the question, “Is Worship Leading a Spiritual Gift?” The answer might surprise you. There are things we can learn from church history and from the Bible about the modern day role of the Worship Leader and how we should carry out this sacred task.
Worship Leader Training - Reading and Leading The Room
Leading worship is more than just singing through a list of songs. Leading worship requires being aware of what the Holy Spirit wants to do and where He wants to lead that specific group of people in that moment. For Gateway Conference 2021 pastors Jamie Whisenhunt, Michael Bethany, and David Moore sat down to talk about what it looks like to read a room and lead people in worship.
The Worship Initiative - Heart Training
Phil Wickham and Shane Barnard talk together about what the goal of a worship leader truly is. One of the most important things we bring into a time of worship is our heart.
