Below are two prayers taken from the book, "Every Moment Holy". Students and Teachers and school administration, we are praying for you as you start up the semester!

A Prayer for Students
O Lord, you who promise to be with me always, be with me this day as I begin my schoolwork. Keep me in health, I pray, and keep me from harm. In all that I do and say, may I love you with all my heart, mind, soul and strength, and may I love my neighbor as myself, so that I might fulfill your purposes for me and your calling on my life as a student. In Christ’s name. Amen.

A Prayer for Teachers
O Lord, you who have called and equipped the teachers and administrators in our community, we pray for them today. Watch over them, provide for them, guide them, sustain them. May you be their sun and shield, so that they might do the work that you have entrusted to them and sense your care in these uncertain times. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

It's been a great week of reflecting on the faithfulness of the Lord as we head into the weekend. We'll be celebrating our two year anniversary as a church plant at The Gathering in Maineville, Ohio!

I've started following a method of journaling recently that has helped me be more organized and systematic. It might sound a little "type A" or "nerdy" at fi...

During COVID-19, I've enjoyed asking friends/church elders what it means to be an elder and shepherd Christ's church. Hope this encourages you as we share what we are learning and how we are growing. Here's Matt Harkey from JenksBibleChurch!

Today, we're learning from Matt Harkey as he shares what it looks like to elder/shepherd members of his church.
