Checkmate: A One Track Mind

Week 4

September 25, 2016 • Pastor Gabe Turner

Everyone of us knows well the battle that rages in our minds. It’s a battle where the enemy attempts to distract, derail, and destroy us through speculations and accusations. In this week’s message of our Checkmate series, Pastor Gabe teaches on the schemes of the enemy to wreak havoc in our minds and how the shield of faith is our only hope to realize the victory provided by Jesus.

Checkmate: Stabbed in the Back

October 9, 2016 • Pastor Gabe Turner

At some point we’ve all been stabbed in the back. Maybe by a friend, probably by an enemy, perhaps even by a family member? In any case it’s an incredibly painful experience. In ancient warfare it was considered dishonorable to attack an opponent from behind. In week six of Checkmate Pastor Gabe concludes this series with the final verses of Paul’s battlecry in Ephesians 6 and gives instruction on how to watch your back in the warfare.

Checkmate: Go For The Head

October 2, 2016 • Pastor Gabe Turner

Have you ever doubted your salvation? Satan knows that to take us out he has to go for the head, which is why Paul says we have to wear the helmet of salvation. The enemy does all he can to keep us from resting in the assurance of the salvation and victory that we have in Jesus Christ. In week 5 of Checkmate Pastor Gabe teaches on the helmet of salvation and shares a personal story from a season where he doubted his salvation as well as how he overcame that doubt.

Checkmate: #SquadGoals

September 18, 2016 • Pastor Gabe Turner

Peace. Paul wrote in Romans 12:18 that as far as it depends on us, we should be at peace with all men. In week three of Checkmate, Pastor Gabe teaches on God’s goal of peace within relationships and what it means to have our feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. Just as conflict in life is inevitable, resolution should be as well; however, our enemy does everything within his power to keep us from realizing God’s goal.
