Untitled[edit]

Gateway Church is a very common name for a church as there seems to be a church by that name in every town in America. Most of these churches are unaffiliated. There are clearly more than one in Texas and the title should be 'Gateway Church Southlake' or something similar — Preceding unsigned comment added by Locustfist (talk • contribs) 20:22, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the entry looks like a big ad for this church. I came across their website while looking for Messianic info, the lack of information on their website about teaching, doctrinal position, etc, was lacking. Hoping to find this on Wikipedia, I was greatly disappointed. As "messianic" sites can vary considerably from very Jewish to very Christian, the information I wanted was clearly missing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WachetAuf (talk • contribs) 10:58, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Have done some light tidying, but the details of the different venues and the pictures are mostly self-promotion. Propose to edit these down significantly, into something nearer tabular form, and to reduce details of staff to names and titles. Matruman (talk) 21:55, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Did the above some time ago. However, I have now twice had to reinstate the controversy over tithing, though it is possible that initially it was deleted by accident. It's now sourced to an article by Morris himself, quoting his words; to avoid a deletion war could anyone wanting to delete it please explain why here. Matruman (talk) 09:33, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The first line of the controversy section "Pastor Robert Morris has been accused of misusing scripture to say that people must tithe to their church if God" is uncited. Accused by whom? Where? The citation later in the sentence is the source of the Morris quote itself but does not establish the actual point of the sentence, which may be original research.

Also, is a theological disagreement such as this one with the senior pastor really noteworthy enough to create a section on the wiki for the church where he happens to serve? I'd have to see the citation for the "controversy" but suspect a few ministers disagreeing with each other is not really that noteworthy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.253.202.154 (talk) 20:35, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request[edit]

Hi,

I am a paid editor of Gateway Church, and I would like to propose some changes to the Gateway Church (Texas) page. These changes are primarily to provide updates to outdated information, improve clarity, and fix some grammatical errors (not to remove information previously on the page). Please see below for the proposed changes. References have also been updated.

CHANGE 1: INTRO[edit]

Current Text: Gateway Church is a non-denominational, charismatic Christian multi-site megachurch based in Southlake, Texas, near Fort Worth. It has an estimated weekly attendance of 36,000 as of 2016 and is one of the largest churches in the United States. The church was founded by Robert Morris.

Proposed Text:

Gateway Church is a non-denominational, charismatic Christian multi-site megachurch based in Southlake, Texas. It is the largest congregation in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex with more than 100,000 people attending each weekend. The church was founded and is led by Senior Pastor Robert Morris.[1]

Gateway Church’s motto is “We’re all about people.” Their vision is to see people saved, healed, set free, discipled, equipped, empowered, and serving. Their mission is to help each person at Gateway believe in Jesus, belong to family, become a follower, and build God’s kingdom.

CHANGE 2: HISTORY[edit]

Current Text:

On September 16, 1999, Pastor Robert Morris began to plan an evangelistic church in Southlake, Texas. Gateway Church's first service was held on Easter morning, April 23, 2000, at the Hilton Hotel in Grapevine. Approximately 180 people attended the service. The church grew, and moved to an old movie theater in Grapevine. In June 2003 the church moved into its first permanent building, a 600-seat, 64,000-square-foot (5,900 m2) facility on Southlake Blvd. In 2010 Gateway opened its current facility, a 64-acre (26 ha) property with a 4,000-seat sanctuary.

In 2017 Gateway Church confirmed 10–15% downsizing of their entire staff. The downsizing story gained national attention by other church media outlets.

Proposed Text: The changes below are just to add additional detail to the current history section. I would like to request that the text below replace the current text. Thank you!

 Not done for now: This request will take a long time to review. It must be more concise (that is, split into several parts.) Quetstar (talk) 04:51, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Quetstar: Thank you for responding to my edit request. Would it be more helpful for me to break each of the requested changes into individual requests? For example, could we start with a review of updates for the History section? This is the first time I have submitted an edit request. Thank you! Katherine at Gateway (talk) 22:42, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that way it will be much more easier for editors to review. Quetstar (talk) 23:50, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Quetstar: Thank you! I will submit my edit requests in smaller segments.Katherine at Gateway (talk) 15:16, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

On September 16, 1999, Robert Morris began to plan a Bible-based, evangelistic church in Southlake, Texas. Gateway Church’s first service was held on Easter morning, April 23, 2000, at the Hilton Hotel in Grapevine. Approximately 180 people attended the service. As the church grew, it moved to an old movie theater in Grapevine, Christ Our King Church in Southlake, and A World of Learning daycare in Grapevine. [2]

In June 2003, the church moved into its first permanent building in Southlake and has since expanded dramatically. In 2010, Gateway opened its current 206,000-square-foot location along State Highway 114 in Southlake.[3]

From 2007 through 2020 Gateway opened eight additional campuses in the Metroplex, one campus out of state, and four prison campuses across Texas.

Gateway celebrated 15 years of ministry in 2015 with 43 Easter services across five campuses with 52,000 people in attendance.

In 2016 Gateway reported official giving records totaled over $500 million for the previous four years (2013–2016). For 2016 their annual report showed revenues of $127.2 million minus $123.9 million expenses, $3.5 million less than total revenue. Gateway also spent $9.9 million on land and other expenditures, which included the land for the Frisco Campus and Dallas Campus locations.

In 2017 Gateway Church confirmed a 10%–15% downsizing of their entire staff.[4] The downsizing story gained national attention by other church media outlets.

During the COVID-19 global pandemic in 2020, Gateway continued to serve its congregation through the official launch of its Online Campus. Though it had been streaming services online since 2012, it innovated new online experiences for a larger at-home audience during building closures. Gateway pastors, staff, and volunteers personally responded to 72,000+ messages after launching its “Text PRAYER to 71010” campaign during the pandemic.

Gateway began 2021 rallying to help DFW residents who experienced shortages of food, water, and power during one of the worst snowstorms in Metroplex history. The church also announced plans to open a new Plano Campus, which will become its ninth DFW-area campus.

CHANGE 3: CAMPUSES[edit]

Current Text:

Southlake[edit]

In 2008, the church began work on a new main campus located along State Highway 114. The project included a 4,000-seat sanctuary. It opened on November 13, 2010. Mark Jobe, father of contemporary Christian singer Kari Jobe, serves as the Campus Pastor.

Prison ministries[edit]

In early 2019, Gateway Church announced it was starting a ministry inside the Coffield Unit, the largest prison in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. It is open to minimum security inmates (and, with special permission, medium security inmates) but all inmates may obtain church materials. The church also ministers at the Estes Unit outside of Venus. Stephen Wilson, an ex-offender who earned his masters from Liberty University and has ministered in prisons previously, serves as the leader of both of these prison efforts. The church uses the term 'campus' in describing each prison outreach program.

Proposed Text: The changes below are just to update outdated information and add the latest details on new Gateway campuses. I would also like to propose a new section about church plants of Gateway Church. I would like to request that the text below replace the current text. Thank you!

Campuses[edit]

The church currently conducts numerous weekend services at eight locations across the Dallas-Fort Worth area; one in Jackson Hole, Wyoming; and four within Texas prisons.

Southlake[edit]

The Southlake Campus is Gateway’s hub from which most of Gateway’s global ministry occurs. The first permanent location was completed in 2003, a 600-seat, 64,000-square-foot (5,900 m2) facility on Southlake Blvd. In 2008, the church began work on a new main campus located along State Highway 114. The project included a 64-acre (26 ha) building, a 4,000-seat sanctuary, a dedicated children’s ministry wing, and plenty of classrooms. It opened on November 13, 2010, and the previous building on Southlake Boulevard was repurposed for The King’s University in 2013. Nathan Watkins currently serves as the campus pastor.

NRH[edit]

In 2007, Gateway opened its first extension campus on nine acres in North Richland Hills (NRH). The weekend services mirror those at the Southlake Campus with live worship, personal ministry, and a video simulcast of the sermon from Southlake. Stokes Collins currently serves as the campus pastor.

Frisco[edit]

In April 2010, the overseers of Northstar Church in Frisco, Texas, asked Gateway to assist them in a transition process following the resignation of their senior pastor, Blaine Bartel.[5] Gateway provided video messages and worship teams for the church before announcing that Northstar would become a Gateway extension campus on June 10, 2010.[6] As with the other extension campuses, the weekend services are a mirror of those at the Southlake Campus with live worship and personal ministry, but with the message delivered via simulcast from the Southlake Campus. Kemtal Glasgow currently serves as the campus pastor.

North Fort Worth[edit]

In 2012, Gateway began holding services in the Fossil Ridge High School auditorium and then in July 2013 moved to a newly renovated campus building at the corner of Beach and Basswood. Derek Dunn currently serves as the campus pastor.

Grand Prairie[edit]

In March 2013, Shady Grove Church in Grand Prairie, Texas, joined the Gateway family as their fourth extension site and became the Grand Prairie Campus. Josh Briscoe currently serves as the campus pastor.

Dallas[edit]

In March 2016, Gateway opened their fifth extension campus in a church building off Hillcrest Road. Steve Thompson currently serves as the campus pastor.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming[edit]

In February 2019, Gateway Church announced a merger with River Crossing Church.[7] Renamed Gateway’s Jackson Hole Campus, this is Gateway’s first campus outside of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex and signifies Gateway’s potential to further expand in other parts of the country. Jim Hall currently serves as the campus pastor.

Justin[edit]

In September 2019, Gateway opened its Justin Campus to provide relief to the overflowing North Fort Worth Campus and meet the rapid growth occurring in and around the master-planned Alliance Texas development. The Justin Campus is currently meeting in a hotel until a permanent campus is ready. Sion Alford currently serves as the campus pastor.

Prosper[edit]

In October 2020, Gateway held its first weekend services at the newly launched Prosper Campus. Matt Lankenau currently serves as the campus pastor. The new Prosper location helps relieve some overflow from the Frisco Campus and meet the growth occurring north of Highway 380 in Prosper, McKinney, and Celina.

Plano[edit]

In 2021, Gateway announced it would be adding a new campus in East Plano. Jelani Lewis serves as the campus pastor.

Prison Campuses[edit]

In early 2019 Gateway Church announced that it opened a campus inside the Coffield Unit, the largest prison in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.[8] It is open to minimum security inmates (and with special permission, medium security inmates), but all inmates may obtain Gateway materials.[9] A second campus was later opened at the Estes Unit outside of Venus, a third opened in the Lindsey Unit in Jacksboro, and in 2020, one was opened in the Choice Moore Transfer Facility in Bonham. Pastor Stephen Wilson,[10] an ex-offender who earned his master’s degree from Liberty University and has ministered in prisons for many years, serves as campus pastor for all prison campuses.[11]

Church Plants[edit]

Gateway Church plants share DNA and oversight with Gateway while having their own senior pastor and eldership.

Gateway Church | Scottsdale, Arizona[edit]

In late 2011, Gateway announced that former Young Adults Pastor Preston Morrison was planting a new Gateway Church in Scottsdale, Arizona.[12] The church launched in August 2012. On May 13, 2018, Gateway Church Arizona launched an additional campus at 1137 E Warner Rd in Tempe, Arizona.

Embassy City Church | Irving, Texas[edit]

In April 2015, Gateway agreed to help Pastor Tim Ross plant Embassy City Church in Irving, Texas. Their first service was in September 2015.

Gateway Church | Houston, Texas[edit]

In 2019, Gateway Pastors Ethan and Elaine Fisher (son-in-law and daughter of Pastor Robert Morris) announced they were planting a Gateway Church in Houston, Texas. It launched in January 2020.

CHANGE 4: MINISTRIES[edit]

Current Text:

The King’s University at Gateway[edit]

Edit Request[edit]

Hi,
