The Gathering Wrapped

from The Gathering · host Rev Tim Ziegler

As I was praying about this morning—this first Sunday of 2026—I started wondering: What if we had "The Gathering Wrapped"? What if we could pull the data on our spiritual life as a community? If God ran the algorithm on The Gathering McCausland for 2025, would our "Minutes Listened" be skewed toward fear and anxiety, or toward hope and action?This morning is our "Visioning Sunday", wherein we look ahead. But I think we need something different this year. I think we need to look at our "Wrapped." We need to look at the raw data of 2025—the good, the bad, and the messy—to understand who we actually are, so we can decide who we want to be in 2026.
