Gathering of Champions | Friday, June 19th 2026 | Pastor Chris Sarno

This powerful message tackles one of the most fundamental challenges we face as men: understanding our biblical role and responsibility while navigating the internal battles that shape our external reality. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 13:11, we're reminded that spiritual maturity isn't automatic—it's a journey of intentionally 'putting away childish things.' The message reveals a crucial truth: our greatest battles aren't fought in the physical realm but in the battlefield of our minds. We learn that thoughts aren't actually ours—they come from either God or the enemy—and our failure to identify their source leads to emotional chaos, relational struggles, and spiritual stagnation. The Adam narrative becomes a mirror for our own lives, showing us how the first man had all authority but failed in his responsibility to guard, guide, and govern. We discover that spiritual maturity transforms four critical areas: how we speak, how we think, how we make decisions, and how we accept responsibility. The practical filter offered is brilliantly simple yet profound: does this thought bring life or death? This biblical framework helps us understand why we feel angry, overwhelmed, or underappreciated—it's often because we're not filtering the mental suggestions bombarding us daily. The message challenges us to stop being 'garbage cans' for every negative thought and instead become gatekeepers of our minds, recognizing that when we change our thinking, we change our speaking, and ultimately, we change our lives. We pray this message blesses you and gives you the strength you need to do and be all that God has called you to do and be!
