"Breakthrough In Clarity"

Have you ever felt God calling you to something bigger, only to face mounting opposition and internal doubt? In a powerful message on breakthrough and clarity, Pastor Gary unpacks the story of Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem's walls to reveal timeless wisdom for pressing forward in faith. Drawing from Nehemiah 4, he demonstrates how true breakthrough isn't about our capacity but God's, and how clarity becomes our anchor when pressure hits. Through Nehemiah's example, Pastor Gary illustrates three vital principles: staying focused on the mission rather than the noise, addressing internal fears with biblical truth, and balancing faith with practical action. His unique perspective emphasizes that progress silences critics faster than arguments ever will, and that our breakthrough requires both divine intervention and human responsibility. As City United Church embraces their year of breakthrough in 2026, Pastor Gary challenges everyone to write down their God-given "why" – the clear purpose that will fuel them through opposition. The urgent call is clear: maintain clarity, keep building, and trust that God will fight for us as we pursue His plans for our future.
