Centered Confidence - Hebrews 9:23-28 - August 16, 2026 - David Doster

August 16, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon from Hebrews 9:23-28, David Doster calls believers to root their confidence not in the shifting sands of culture, wealth, or institutions, but in the once-for-all atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Because Christ has entered heaven itself — not a copy or shadow, but the true sanctuary — and offered his own blood as the perfect and final sacrifice, we have an unshakeable foundation for life. That cross-centered confidence compels us to wait eagerly, live distinctively, and trust God fully, no matter what we face.

Nothing but the Blood of Jesus - Hebrews 9:15-22 - August 9, 2026 - Jay Rabon

August 09, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon, Jay Rabon walks through Hebrews 9:15-22, unpacking three powerful things the precious blood of Jesus Christ accomplishes: it secures an eternal inheritance for believers, it serves as the inauguration sign of the New Covenant, and it is the required payment for the remission of sins. Because Christ is the mediator of the New Covenant, his blood reaches not only forward to cover the sins of new believers every day, but backward to redeem the faithful saints of the Old Covenant as well. The only fitting response to this priceless, freely given gift is overwhelming gratitude and a holy zeal to rise up against the sins that put Christ on the cross.

The 5 W’s and an H - Hebrews 9:11-14 - August 2, 2026 - Rick Sutherland

August 02, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In Hebrews 9:11-14, Rick Sutherland walks through the who, what, where, when, how, and why of Christ's entry into the heavenly holy place as our great high priest — showing how his once-for-all sacrifice infinitely surpasses the repeated, limited rituals of the Old Covenant. Where the blood of goats and bulls could only cleanse the outside, the blood of Christ reaches the deepest part of who we are, purifying our conscience from dead works. The great news of the new covenant is this: it's not the intensity of our faith, but the object of our faith — the blood of the Lamb — that saves us and silences the accuser.

The Fear of the Lord - Various Proverbs - July 26, 2026 - David Tyrrell

July 26, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon, David Tyrrell walks through the Book of Proverbs to explore the fear of the Lord as the foundational stone of all wisdom and knowledge. Drawing from Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 14:27, and a sweep of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, David shows that the fear of the Lord is not a primitive or negative thing, but a life-giving, fountain-like reality that guards God's people from the snares of death. Far from being a one-time decision or a cold set of rules, the fear of the Lord must be intentionally cultivated and affectionately embraced — rooted in the heart and ultimately made possible through Jesus Christ.

Surely I am more Stupid than any man - Proverbs 30 - July 19, 2026 - David Keyes

July 19, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

David Keyes walks through Proverbs 30, the often-overlooked wisdom of Agur, whose startling opening confession — "Surely I am more stupid than any man" (Proverbs 30:2) — sets the tone for the entire chapter. Rather than being a sign of defeat, this humility is the very foundation of wisdom, because compared to an infinite God, human knowledge amounts to almost nothing. From Agur's rhetorical questions about who controls the wind and waters, to his careful observations of creation's smallest creatures, the message is clear: true wisdom begins when we stop pretending we can reach up to God and start receiving what He has graciously reached down to give us.

Lady Wisdom and the Secret Man - Proverbs 9 - July 12, 2026 - Benjamin Huffman

July 12, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon on Proverbs 9, Benjamin Huffman introduces Lady Wisdom and her counterpart, Mistress Folly, and calls the congregation to humbly seek God's wisdom as the foundation for a meaningful life. He reminds us that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 9:10), and that those who welcome correction, surround themselves with wise companions, and feast at wisdom's table will walk in understanding and purpose. Those who refuse, however, are lured by the empty promises of Folly and led only toward destruction.

Purpose and Reward - Proverbs 1 - July 5, 2026 - Chris Matthews

July 05, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon on Proverbs 1, Chris Matthews walks through the purpose and reward of wisdom, showing that the fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge and skillful living. Drawing on Solomon's instruction to his son Rehoboam — and ultimately to all of us — Chris contrasts the life of the wise, who hear and act on God's word, with the life of the fool, who hears but refuses. The sermon lands on the promise of Proverbs 1:33, that whoever listens to wisdom will dwell safely, live securely, and have no fear of evil — a promise echoed powerfully in Jesus' parable of the wise and foolish builders in Matthew 7:24-27.

The Best Shepherd - Psalm 23 - June 28, 2026 - David Doster

June 28, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon on Psalm 23:1-6, David Doster draws from decades of pastoral experience — including a powerful moment with an LSU basketball team facing a teammate's terminal cancer diagnosis — to remind us that Jesus is not merely a good shepherd, but the best shepherd. Because Christ first walked through the valley of the shadow of death on our behalf (Psalm 22), He alone has the credentials to guide, restore, and provide for His sheep in every season of life. The sermon closes with a tender personal testimony of David's wife Julie, who clung to the goodness of God even as she faced cancer, embodying the truth that the Lord's chesed — His steadfast, unfailing lovingkindness — never dims, even in the darkest valleys.

The Better Covenant - Hebrews 9:1-10 - June 21, 2026 - Don Windmiller

June 21, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon on Hebrews 9:1-10, Don Windmiller walks through the earthly tabernacle — its furniture, its priesthood, and its sacrifices — showing how every detail was a shadow pointing forward to Jesus Christ. The lampstand, the bread of presence, the ark, the mercy seat, and the torn veil all find their fulfillment in Christ, the once-for-all sacrifice who has now entered the heavenly sanctuary on our behalf. Because of his shed blood, the veil has been ripped from top to bottom, and every believer can draw near to God with full confidence and a clean conscience.

The Better Covenant - Hebrews 8:8-13 - June 14, 2026 - Jay Rabon

June 14, 2026/ Gateway Bible Church/ Gateway Bible Church

In this sermon, Jay Rabon walks through Hebrews 8:7-12 to show how Christ has brought the Old Covenant to obsolescence, fulfilling what the law could never accomplish. He unpacks three great promises of the New Covenant: God writes His law on our hearts, we can know God personally and intimately, and God remembers our sins no more. Because of what Christ has done, every believer stands before God clothed in righteousness — not by their own effort, but by the all-sufficient merit of Jesus.
