New Creation Identity: From Toiling All Night to Resurrection Dawn

Chris Berglund preaching at The Gathering Church in Colorado Springs about new creation identity and leaving spiritual exhaustion.

Many of us are spiritually exhausted because we’ve been “toiling all night”—fighting sin like a verb instead of receiving identity like a gift. In John 21, resurrection dawn changes everything: Jesus meets the disciples with a finished breakfast, a restored heart, and an unbroken net. This is an invitation out of striving and into union—where Christ’s life becomes our life.

A reflection on 2 Corinthians 5, the incarnation, and the finished work of Christ—exploring why reconciliation precedes repentance, and how true transformation begins with awakening to what is already true.

Violent Mercy, Gentle Rest

Chris Berglund teaching on forgiveness, covenant, and finding rest in Matthew 11.

This week, we explored Matthew 11—where Jesus invites the weary into rest—and how the “violence” of the kingdom often looks like forgiving, releasing debt, and choosing mercy.

In this week’s message at The Gathering in Colorado Springs, Chris Berglund explores how believers overcome accusation through the Melchizedek priesthood and the indestructible life of Christ within. This teaching calls us out of the “synagogue of Satan” and back into our true identity—union, belonging, and the unshakable priesthood we carry in Jesus.
