Kainos when set up his reign for the first 1000 years (Rev 20) and then "Neos" (nay-os) when a new heaven and earth comes down from above (Rev 21)? (5:25)
As my boys delight in fishing, I have been speaking with them about how God has given Man the responsibility of caring for creatures. So this week's sermon hit on topic for our family. One thing that my mind keeps dwelling on is the word "dominion" in Gen 1:26. Is having dominion over creation the same as caretaking? (8:00)
Loved your sermon about taking care of creation on Sunday. What can we as a church be doing better, practically, even on Sunday mornings? Has Gateway implemented a recycling program themselves? Can we reduce the paper handouts that often get thrown out, or encourage people to bring their own coffee mugs? (12:10)
I want to love others with no record of wrong (1 Corinthians 13:5). But when my mind is quiet I unintentionally go to a place where I relive past conversations and hurts. I want to hold every thought captive to Christ. How do I accomplish this? (16:20)

Have I really forgiven someone if I keep remembering their wrong?
Questions from an almost 10 year old about Moses and the Passover (submitted by her dad): I know God is holy, but how can He be holy if he kills people?” (then we talked about God’s righteousness and justice). Does God (or His angels) kill people or does he allow Satan to kill people for Him? Also, why is it that children ask their most deep spiritual questions when they know it's already past bedtime?? (27:00)
After all that God has done for us through the New Covenant, why do we Christians live our lives at a much lesser spiritual quality than Jesus died to give us? (31:30)
