Click Here GATEWAY MINISTRIES MINISTRIES KIDS YOUTH SMALL GROUPS History of Gateway Fellowship Kerr Gateway Fellowship Church Kerr County began with a simple but powerful yes to God's vision: to help meet a growing need in Kerr County for a church where people could truly belong and grow in faith. What started as a small group gathering in a home quickly outgrew the living room within three months. God opened the door for the church to begin meeting in a local barber shop, where people were giving their lives to Jesus and getting baptized in horse troughs right in the parking lot. As more people began calling GFC Kerr their home, the church transitioned into a mobile church at the Dietert Center in Kerrville, Texas. Even without a permanent space, the church family continued to grow through Sunday services, small groups, and a deep sense of community. In 2023, God provided in a powerful and unexpected way when a local church felt called to give GFC Kerr their building—completely free of charge. This generous gift gave GFC Kerr a permanent home in Ingram, Texas. Since then, the church has expanded to three Sunday morning services and continues to see lives transformed. From a house to a barber shop, to a mobile church, to a permanent home, the story of GFC Kerr has always been about trusting where God leads. Our mission remains the same: Helping Friends Become Devoted Followers of Jesus. With a heart for multiplication through small groups and a passion for regional impact, GFC Kerr is committed to reaching more people across Kerr County and the Texas Hill Country with the hope and truth of Jesus.

The Whole-Brain Way to Calm the Chaos and Nurture Your Child's Developing Mind Highlighting the fascinating link between a child’s neurological development and the way a parent reacts to misbehavior, No-Drama Discipline provides an effective, compassionate road map for dealing with tantrums, tensions, and tears—without causing a scene. < Back No-Drama Discipline NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The pioneering experts behind The Whole-Brain Child and The Yes Brain tackle the ultimate parenting challenge: discipline. “A lot of fascinating insights . . . an eye-opener worth reading.”— Parents Highlighting the fascinating link between a child’s neurological development and the way a parent reacts to misbehavior, No-Drama Discipline provides an effective, compassionate road map for dealing with tantrums, tensions, and tears—without causing a scene. Defining the true meaning of the “d” word (to instruct, not to shout or reprimand), the authors explain how to reach your child, redirect emotions, and turn a meltdown into an opportunity for growth. By doing so, the cycle of negative behavior (and punishment) is essentially brought to a halt, as problem solving becomes a win/win situation. Inside this sanity-saving guide you’ll discover • strategies that help parents identify their own discipline philosophy—and master the best methods to communicate the lessons they are trying to impart • facts on child brain development—and what kind of discipline is most appropriate and constructive at all ages and stages • the way to calmly and lovingly connect with a child—no matter how extreme the behavior—while still setting clear and consistent limits • tips for navigating your child through a tantrum to achieve insight, empathy, and repair • twenty discipline mistakes even the best parents make—and how to stay focused on the principles of whole-brain parenting and discipline techniques Complete with candid stories and playful illustrations that bring the authors’ suggestions to life, No-Drama Discipline shows you how to work with your child’s developing mind, peacefully resolve conflicts, and inspire happiness and strengthen resilience in everyone in the family. Praise for No-Drama Discipline “With lucid, engaging prose accompanied by cartoon illustrations, Siegel and Bryson help parents teach and communicate more effectively.” — Publishers Weekly “Wow! This book grabbed me from the very first page and did not let go.” —Lawrence J. Cohen, Ph.D., author of The Opposite of Worry

Boyd The Barna group recently released shocking statistics: Less than half of born-again teenagers (44 percent) say they are absolutely committed to the Christian faith. Only one in every three teens (33 percent) say they are likely to continue to participate in church life once they are living on their own. These alarming numbers bring all kinds of questions to mind: What can the church do to develop spiritually strong kids? How can Kids Ministry Leaders work with parents to keep kids in church? What tools will help us provide adequate spiritual training? With over thirty years of kids ministry experience, David Boyd is a reliable source for answers to questions like these. Based on eight major goals, he provides insight and information on how to help kids become believers who are strong enough to last the most difficult challenges of life. Disciple-making Parent by Chap Bettis "Compelling and faithful to the gospel" -- Dr. Albert Mohler, President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. " A fantastic parenting book.

Too many growing up in Christian homes will not follow Christ as adults. Do you have a strategy for parenting in today's hostile culture? The Disciple-Making Parent will give you confidence in your journey. Risen Motherhood by Emily Jensen & Laura Wifler Motherhood is hard. In a world of five-step lists and silver-bullet solutions to become perfect parents, mothers are burdened with mixed messages about who they are and what choices they should make. If you feel pulled between high-fives and hard words, with culture’s solutions only raising more questions, you’re not alone. But there is hope. You might think that Scripture doesn’t have much to say about the food you make for breakfast, how you view your postpartum body, or what school choice you make for your children, but a deeper look reveals that the Bible provides the framework for finding answers to your specific questions about modern motherhood. Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler help you understand and apply the gospel to common issues moms face so you can connect your Sunday morning faith to the Monday morning tantrum. Discover how closely the gospel connects with today’s motherhood. Join Emily and Laura as they walk through the redemptive story and reveal how the gospel applies to your everyday life, bringing hope, freedom, and joy in every area of motherhood.
