This Sunday, we'll be launching into a new sermon series called, "Living His Way." So often the perception that people have of Christianity is that it's simply a set of moral "do's and don'ts" so that God will be happy with you. But by looking back at the Old Testament, back at the story of God's redemption, we see that God delivers His people first, and then calls them to live His way out of gratitude, knowing that it's for their best.

In this series, we're going to be taking a second look at the Ten Commandments from the perspective of Deuteronomy. Why did the people of God need a second look or a reminder of God's way before they entered into the Promised Land?

We hope you'll join us on this journey together!

Engage: Gathering 2026

Mark your calendars! Gathering 2026 is happening August 19–21, 2026 at Community Reformed Church in Zeeland, Michigan.

This year’s theme is Engage, with a focus on discipleship. You may notice this is a change from our previously announced theme. After prayerful consideration and thoughtful conversation, the Gathering Team discerned that Engage more clearly captures what God is inviting us into in this next season.

Rooted in our shared call to discipleship, Gathering 2026 invites leaders and churches to engage with God, with one another, and with the mission of making disciples. Together, we will explore how God calls us to equip disciples to faithfully follow Jesus in a shifting world. Through worship, teaching, and shared learning, we will sharpen our vision, strengthen our practices, and step fully into God’s call of discipleship.

In February, we will share the registration link and hotel information for the Gathering. Early bird registration will be $60 per person, with regular pricing at $80 per person beginning in May. Day passes will also be available for $30 per person. We look forward to engaging together in fellowship, worship, prayer and discipleship with you in August.
