Gateway Church Cymru is a church with a glorious past, but an even more glorious future. Our church is dedicated to leading you toward Christ, Community and Calling.
In this message, “I Will… But First…”, Pastor Luke looks at Luke 9:57–62 and challenges us to think about the excuses we sometimes make when Jesus calls us to follow Him.
Through the story of three people who wanted to follow Jesus but kept delaying, we’re reminded that following Christ isn’t something to put off until later. This sermon encourages us to respond with faith, trust, and obedience today.
Shared on Next Steps Sunday 2026, this message invites everyone to take their next step with Jesus - without hesitation.

Why A Year Of Strengthening?
In Part 2 of Vision Sunday, Pastor Luke builds on the foundation of strengthening by calling the church to prepare for growth.
Drawing from Isaiah 54:1–3 (NLT), we are reminded that God’s promises often require us to make room before we see the increase. Before new people arrive, before new opportunities open, and before new seasons begin, God calls His people to enlarge their hearts, stretch their faith, and expand their capacity.
This message challenges us to move from simply being strengthened to being ready - ready to welcome more people, ready to serve more effectively, and ready to steward what God is about to do.
Vision Sunday Part 2 calls Gateway Church Cymru to step forward in faith, make room for others to encounter Jesus, and believe for the growth and impact God has promised as we move into A Year of Strengthening together.

A Year Of Strengthening
In Part 1 of Vision Sunday, Pastor Luke shares the heart and foundation for the year ahead at Gateway Church Cymru.
Drawing from Ephesians 6:10 (CSB), we are reminded that real strength is not something we generate ourselves, but something we receive from the Lord. Before we talk about vision, growth, or what’s next, God calls His people to be strengthened by Him.
This message explores what it means to be strengthened in three key ways:
by His presence, as we learn to depend on God daily;
by His Word, as Scripture shapes and anchors our lives;
and by His people, as we are strengthened together in community.
Vision Sunday Part 1 sets the spiritual foundation for A Year of Strengthening, calling us to rely on God’s vast strength as we move forward in faith, unity, and expectation for all He has promised.
