Good Morning Pastor Gary. I listen to your message, through YouTube. It was so powerful. You have the Gift of God, through Holy Spirit. May God Bless Your Ministry Richly.
My name is Sydney Soans. I am 81 years old and live in Scarborough / Ontario / Canada. I am married, and have one daughter.
I would love to send you my donation every month, if you provide me with your self addressed stamped envelopes. Hope to hear from you soon.
GOD BLESS,
Sydney Soans.
Hello from Alberta, Canada.
My husband & I are so thankful that we found Pastor Gary’s teachings on YouTube. Every day we listen to at least 3 or 4 lessons and are blessed by his teachings that are so on point. We have gained so much more understanding especially in Revelations. Enjoy his humour a lot and also the Q&A sessions. MY God continually bless and keep you Pastor Gary!
I have just found Pastor Gary Hamrick on You Tube. I love his teaching of the Bible. He brings for much insight from his teachings!
Gary, thank you for preaching the Word of God thoroughly and effectively. God has blessed you with a gift and you are employing that gift to further His kingdom.
Pastor Gary,
We visited Cornerstone Chapel and your Easter sermon on Saturday and had the priveiledge of your acquaintance afterward. We follow your teachings every Wednesday & Sunday and find your words are those of GOD himself and touched our souls. GOD Bless you, your family and your devout followers.
Thank you pastor Gary…. U have changed my life…I’m so addicted to the Bible teachings and laugh at your sense of humor… Well done pastor! GBU. ❤️
A friend where I work introduced me to you, Pastor Gary. I’m loving the revelation series and learning so much! Blessings to you and your family. ☆☆☆
My husband and I recently received a YouTube video of Pr. Gary from a friend, speaking on Israel, Hamas & End Times. We started searching for other studies by Pr.Gary and can’t get enough of his teachings. He is so very interesting & we learn so much more about the Bible than any other teachings we have been through. Very good! Can’t wait to watch another teaching! He brings the Bible to life!
I so enjoy Pastor Gary’s teaching so much, love his sense of humor. He is right up there with David Jeremiah in staying true to the Word an application. I am curious, Pastor Gary seems to have such a “handle'” on the Hebrew language, more than the average pastor it seem. What is the origin of this language understanding and usage of Hebrew. Has he studied Hebrew as a language. Where did he pickup all his understanding and application of the Hebrew language?
I thank the Lord for leading me comebacross Pastor Gary’s Bible Study by chance. I am rejoicing in this ‘find’ I am learning so much more about Bible Prophecy. The series has me deeply focused on my Christian journey as I connect God’s power to my daily life. I just want to trust God more passionately knowing that He has all things in control. I pray that the Almighty continúes to bless Pastor Gary and his family and prosper his ministry. Pastor, your sense of humor is amazing, your spontenity has me laughing heartily as I view and listen to your shows.Thank you for my sporitual growth.
I attend Cornerstone. Pastor Gary has been traveling to Israel ever year for many years. He is friends with Amir Tsfarti and has gleaned do much Hebrew from his many visits and contacts through the years.
Hebrew and the OT is the primary source for understanding the NT. If one doesn’t read the scriptures Jesús read as a rabbi, how can we understand the depths of the NT?
I agree without any reservation Gary is one of the top 5 teachers out there. We are growing do fast we needed to find a pastor to join our team to minister to only the on-line church!
Pastor Gary,
You are a wonderful Bible teacher. I started listening to you because of one of your messages I caught on YouTube. I’ve been hooked ever since. Very simple and impactful messages. I live in Philadelphia.
Thank you for sharing Carol…I agree with every word you have said. I have been listenong to Pastor Gary Hamrick from S.A. for the last 3 years and cannot stop listening to him. He is a true child of God.
How can I get a copy of your program on WAVA, Monday evening at 6:30PM from tonight, Nov. 6th? I have not been able to get a cd from the radio station. Thank you!
All of Pastor Gary’s teachings are available on Cornerstone Chapel’s teaching library.
I am an 81 year old retiree spending my final years in Costa Rica as an expat from the US. I have been a believer since I was 18 and have always been involved in ministry. Before covid, I was very involved with ministering to drug addicts.
In the past 5 years or so I have become so disappointed with pastors – the pastor at my home church in the Chicago suburbs left the church because of abuse of women. About 3 years ago my pastor here in Costa Rica, who I loved like a son, was found to be a womanizer and a thief…hence, the disillusionment!
But, Gary, you have been such a lifeline for me. I just finished with your study of Revelation (and have 104 pages of notes to prove it!) and now am going through your study of Ezekiel 36 through 40. Thank you for being my online pastor during these final, dark days…you bring light into my home with each of your studies. God bless you!
Thank you for your support and assessment of Pastor Gary. He’s solid and a true man of God. I love his messages too. Best I’ve heard since Charles Stanley, another uncompromising tv evangelist and pastor of truth.
Gary is unfortunately a false teacher of the pagan doctrines of men, not God of the Bible…
Just not true! I have listened to Pastor Gary for well over a year. I probably listen to 2 or 3 of his sermons a day, because I’m bed bound most of the time. He is most definitely a pastor who faithfully preaches the word of God truthfully.
I’m appalled that anyone would say these hateful, untrue words about this man
I utterly agree with Penni. The only pastor who preach the whole counsel of God’s word faithfully. I have finally come to a greater understanding concerning the end times and conviction of faith in Christ Jesus because Pastor Gary Hamrick is able and willing to teach the bible in its context and yet draw precious lessons to deal with all issues in my life.
With greater understanding of the timeline of end time events and the things to come comes the conviction to share with others because Pastor Gary Hamrick at every message is yet able to preach directing attention to Jesus and the relationship with Him with the gospel heard from different angles from confirmed in the inter-connection between the different books of the bible.
His message leads to a deeper love and appreciation of Jesus and a natural desire to put love in action. The being then the doing and not the other way round. Yes it is a lifeline for those who needs to hear the word of God, the truth spoke in love.
Thank you Pastor Gary Hamrick for teaching me so much from the bible in the last two years.
What is the basis for your serious assertions? To simply throw out such a bald statement lacking any sort of backup does not lend credibility to your words.
Stuart, Go back to where you came from. Reverend Gary is a fine Godly man.
I could not agree with you more, This is the world we live in, my guess is he just does not have ANYONE in his life
Not sure what you are referring to but the Bible I read is exactly what Gary teaches from with true Biblical doctrine. You must be thinking of someone else. Gary is a solid theological scriptural based teacher. He’s a man of truth and a man of God.
How in the world can you say this? I am a Bible teacher and knew pastor Chuck Smith personally and Gary was ordained by Chuck. Do you have a problem with the Calvary Chapel movement or are you just singling out Pastor Gary? What “doctrines” of men are you accusing him of? This man is one of the most genuine good SOLID pastors in today’s watered down Christian world.
Stuart, You should be careful of the of the things you say.
I have not noticed anything he teaches to be wrong.
Pastor Hamrick,
I just wanted to say that I am very pleased to make your acquaintance via the sermons you have recently posted on YouTube. The sermon related to Hamas & Israel was right on. I must say it’s been awhile since I regularly attended a church or followed an individual pastor, as my own (right) pastor passed some 10 years ago. Every church we’ve been to since seems to emphasize music, collections, and social entertainment more than disseminating the truth. I am pleased to again find a pastor who truly has the gift, knows his history, and who disseminates the Word in a way that anyone can understand. Kudos to you and please continue your fine work. Your messages have been very helpful to me and mine as we try to deal with what’s happening to our once-great country. May the Lord bless you and yours, and this “close to crumbling” client nation of ours.
Respectfully,
Michael B.
Sorry Garry, you’re involved with syncritism mixing the Bible with the pagan teachings of men.. How do you not know about Nimrod, Lord of Christmas??
I watch Gary Hamrick online very often. I love his sermons, they are so detailed and explained well…Thank you for saying what is on your mind and heart. We need to hear this. Gary, You are an AMAZING Pastor…Thank you for putting yourself out there for all to hear…You are such an inspiration to us.
Sherry…We live in Maine…Just thought you might want to know that you have listeners here.
Pastor Gary
GOD Bless you and your Gift of Teaching. I concur with the comments above regarding your ability to open the Word of God to your listeners. I was introduced to your teaching during a Men’s Bible study., at the Church I am attending (EFC) on the Minor Prophets. I have reviewed your teaching on the Book of Acts and recommend. it’s use; to our Church leadership, for our upcoming Small Group this fall.
I am living in a Senior Retirement Community…I just turned 91 and am planning to use your material in a men’s Bible Group here in our community.
May God bless you and your Ministry.
George R. Iemmolo from Valparaiso, IN
Gary Hamrick is my pastor. No one is anywhere near his teachings snd he’s not afraid to say it for what it is. God bless you.
Pastor
My husband was a pastor and I am so glad that you are a teaching pastor. Many just have a duty to stand in the pulpit and talk but never teach. I am a methodist and have not been attending church due to the fact of the distortion of the bible. I am waiting to vote to go to global methodist but my local church (people) say they have not heard of any vote. Hope to hear from you. But will continue to listen on YouTube
On Sunday, June 4, 2023 I attended the 11:45 AM online service. I applaud today’s teachings and am in total agreement regarding this “trans “culture. Very powerful message. That said, at 1:10 PM my screen went dark, and then another program began. So sadly, I was unable to hear your closing words. God bless you and your continued ministry. Keep calm and carry-on.

P.S. You baptized me on August 25, 2021 and I’m forever grateful.
Pastor Gary,
Thank you for the ministry of the word of the Lord. I am enjoying the series on 1and2_Samuel. Love the historical context, so interesting. I watch it on YouTube.
I live in Cleveland Ohio and I watch Gary’s Bible studies. I also watch his Sunday morning services at 8:30 a.m.
Pastor Gary,
I lead a Bible Study among neighbors in the country in Texas. I listen to your sermons often for more insight into God’s Word. I sincerely appreciate your ministry.
Roger, where in TX?
I am a SDA Pastor Gary and I was so blessed to hear you share the Truth as is found in JESUS CHRIST. Looking forward to spending time with you in the New Jerusalem if not sooner. Pastor Gary continue sharing the the truth.
Sincerely,
Mark Thomlinson.
Hello Cornerstone,
We are a couple in Australia who were fortunate to find you on YouTube. We thank you so much as our teaching at the moment is non-teaching. We love watching you, your compassion, and your care, along with your excellent teaching. You live what you say! Also, your mid-week studies are just so informative and true. It is so refreshing to find that there are people in our world who are still spreading the truth, amongst a den of churches that are far from God and break our hearts. I want to encourage you to keep going and keep telling the Story. I pray for you, in a World that is under the control of the Evil One. We thank God you were put in the World to bring clarity and truth.
I live in the UK and discovered your ministry after trawling through YouTube for Bible expositors. I started by following your series on the Book of Revelation which has literally been a revelation to me. I have dipped into the Book in the past but your teaching and unpacking of the scriptures have opened my understanding in a totally new way – thank you so much. I love the clarity of your teaching, your uncompromising commitment to God’s Word, and your sense of humour.
Again thank you so much – I am truly blessed!
We find this series just wonderful. We are in Australia and I thank God for true teachers from whom we hear truth and wisdom.
My wife and I are born-again Christians of the Pentecostal persuasion who have been in church all our lives. A year or so ago, I attached a Roku stick to my tv and began searching for Bible-teaching YouTube videos. We were amazed at your teaching on the Book of Revelation and several other books of the Bible and consider you a credible authority on God’s Word. Our church has several pastors, and we love and respect them all, but after listening to you for a while now (since 2021, I believe), we feel we have an additional pastor. We might just make a trip to visit your church sometime next year and hope to meet you in person.
Where did you get your seminary education? I really appreciate your wonderful teaching!
I am greatly blessed by Pastor Gary’s GOD-given ability to teach His word! I am 76 yo and you are my favorite pastor. I love that you give introductory info before starting the different Books. I am so attentive because you heighten the interest of your listeners. I love that you are amusing. I don’t merely chuckle, I guffaw! You deliver the joke, pun, or anecdote, in such a smooth transition that it never detracts from your teaching. I love GOD that He blesses you so with this amazing gift of teaching His word. And I am so blessed to receive it. Thank you, Pastor Gary.
Pastor Hamrick teaches and preaches the Holy Bible the way God wants it done.
I am so thankful I found Pastor Gary Hamrick’s sermons and teaching on YouYube. I believe he is teaching the Bible the way it should be taught. Line upon line. Precept upon precept. I haven’t heard anyone preach this way, and it is refreshing. It is so good to see some seminaries still teaching to preach the word of God the way it should be taught.
Thanks Gary also for weaving in your sense of humor. When I start listening to you I don’t want to stop. I tell everyone I know about you because you tell it like it is and in a way it is understood. I thank God for you, I would like to know why you don’t believe in the Gap theory, How do you explain that “it was created without form and void?”
I am from Little Rock Arkansas.
Ez40 was 55 years before the building of the 2nd temple. Why would God be talking about a 3rd physical temple? 2nd temple started approximately 536BC and completed in 516BC under KDarius.
Eph2:19-22 talks about another temple. One where God’s spirit dwells.
Rev11 temple in Jerusalem. Rev 15 temple in heaven. No temple in Rev.21
Would he bet his salvation on a literal 3rd temple? He is the 3rd Temple. No more sacrifices. And he teaches Hebrews? Any takers about a literal temple?
Hello Pastor Gary,
I have been watching your broadcast almost every night for several months. I have attempted to read my bible for several years but have never really grasped it very well until I started watching you online. I totally enjoy the way you teach and now I have more understanding. I thank God every day for your ministry. I also watch the news and afterward I must tune into your program to recoup and find peace again. Thanks again.
I also enjoy your humor. I am sure God likes it too. I really also liked your political sermon. Do you think as divided as we are as a country, will America eventually split into two sections as Israel did?
keep up the great work.
Mary Green from North Carolina
Dear Gary,
A friend introduced me to your sermons many weeks ago and invited me to listen to Revelation.
For many years I have dipped in and out of this book with no idea of its truth, but the bits I thought I understood scared me. So with trepidation, I tuned into your first sermon on Revelation.
You have without a doubt been anointed by the Lord with a tremendous gift for exploring, studying, and sharing God’s Word.
To say I couldn’t wait to get to the next sermon is an understatement. Though Revelation reveals the horrors that are to come, my fears are now in the past for I know beyond doubt that I will be with the Lord before the Tribulation begins.
Praise God for blessing you with this mighty gift. I have just begun Genesis.
Regards,
Patricia Beadle from England.
Without a doubt, you are an outstanding pastor. Your sermons and Bible studies have fed my soul as no other Bible teacher has ever done. Keep up the good work. God has an outstanding reward waiting for you when He returns and I believe it is soon.
Hi Gary,
Just wanted to express our thanks & appreciation for the work you do as Senior Pastor of Cornerstone!
My Wife Kath & I have been following your Ministry & outstanding Messages for about 3 years now & have both been blessed beyond measure, thank you!
Keep up the Great Work you are doing, our thoughts & Prayers are with you!
Many Blessings to you Terri, Family & Church.
Every Blessing,
Paul & Kathleen Holmes (Western Australia, the Land Down Under)
You are a wonderful Pastor, Gary! I really love your teachings. You have transformed me to know Christ better. It is getting to a year since I got to follow you online.
Thank you for your sound teaching. God’s blessings to you and your family.
Dearest Pastor Gary,
First and foremost, I want to thank our Lord Jesus Christ for giving me a chance to find a real Pastor like you. When I say real Pastor, I’m talking about the way you deliver the words of God, The Truth about God/Jesus Christ. I’m from West Palm Beach Florida but originally from the Philippines. I have been watching online for over a year now. May God continue to bless you and your family so you may continue to bless others too.
God Speed,
Merlie Stubbs.
Pastor Gary,
My wife & I found you through our friends. We are on the West Coast, Wa St. At this time we are listening to your IM series. Thank you for bringing us closer to God. We are a little late to the table, but you have captured us. Thank you and God bless you.
He hasn’t brought you closer to God. He has made you believe he has.
Good day Pastor Gary,
Thank you for your great prophetic teachings. As we look around and see the world in a horrid state. Our Leaders(both)are fumbling and Legislating the immoral cry’s by Woke,to try and keep hold of votes. And the political and war mongering going on around the world, especially in Iran and the Gog and Magog, we see these prophecies falling into place so quickly, don’t we? And sadly students of today are no longer individuals, when we were students we were taught how to think, today they are sadly taught what to think. This of course is why their unified pack mentality is so united. The Pitt Street Uniting Church in Sydney (this is from the amalgamation of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational Churches) has a Transvestite Pastor, who supports the Gay Mardi Gras and Pride march, and is still under the Synod management!!! All Hell is breaking loose here also.
Thanks again, Gary.
