One on One with Matt & Grace Hosier pt 2

Matt and Grace Hosier

M.M: What touched you the most at Together on a Mission?
M.H: Catching up with my friends.

M.M: From your experience, what nuggets can you share with other leaders?
M.H: a) Live grace rather than law, b) be secure in Christ rather than in performance c) Find a woman, love her, be happy with her.

M.M: Excellent nuggets from someone who is living the life. What snapshot did you get Gateway from the service today?
M.H: It raised the spiritual level of the church, breaking boundaries, freedom, taking more risks. People love to see diversity in action especially when it’s working.

M.M: Looking at Gateway’s vision – how do you envision it panning out?
M.H: We’ll create a new leadership team, new elders. We see the church growing in numbers, depth and fervor. We’ll tell BIG stories of what Jesus has done – rich or poor.

M.M: Exciting! To conclude, what thoughts do you have on the Church at large?
M.H: I think within the New Frontiers family of churches we can take for granted how good church life is and it may not be the experience of others. We experience word & spirit, grace, generosity and so on. The CHURCH is the hope of the world.

M.M: Yes, it is. Thanks Matt for your time. May God be with you and Grace as you lead Gateway Church and as you continue to impact so many lives locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.
