The Blessed Family: A Guide to Spiritual and Relational Health - Part Three
The Beatitudes are the constitution of the kingdom of God, and they set the standard for how followers of Jesus are meant to live every day of the week. Today, Pastor Gene walks through the final four beatitudes found in Matthew 5. And there is a very important key found in this passage regarding unforgiveness. Unforgiveness is the one thing that will shut down a prayer life completely, no matter how disciplined or devoted a person may be. So, the call this week is simple but not easy: allow the Holy Spirit to identify an area in your life that you have been withholding mercy, and take one concrete step toward forgiveness.Join Us In Person on Sundays:10:00AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Blessed Family: A Guide to Spiritual and Relational Health - Part Two
Many Christians go through the motions of church life without ever experiencing deep, lasting transformation. At the center of the Sermon on the Mount sit 66 words that Jesus placed there intentionally: the Lord's Prayer. These words are not simply a prayer to recite but a path to walk, forming the root system from which a truly transformed life grows. The Beatitudes open the Sermon on the Mount with a picture of what a genuinely transformed person looks like, from humility and mourning to meekness and a hunger for righteousness. Real discipleship is not about attending more services or completing more programs. It is about allowing those 66 words, prayed faithfully and consistently, to do a quiet and powerful work beneath the surface of the soul.Join Us In Person on Sundays:10:00AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Blessed Family: A Guide to Spiritual and Relational Health - Part One
Two men faced the same storm. One stood firm. One collapsed. The difference was not the storm itself but the foundation beneath each man. Jesus made clear in the Sermon on the Mount that hearing His words is not enough. A man must put them into practice. When a man's heart is divided between God and the things of this world, everything suffers. His marriage suffers. His children suffer. He suffers. The call is simple but demanding: seek first the kingdom, get planted in the Word, and build on the only foundation that holds when the storm arrives.Join Us In Person on Sundays:10:00AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Twelve
The closing declaration of the Lord's Prayer - Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory - is more than just words; it's a powerful spiritual tool. Rooted in King David's worship in 1 Chronicles 29, this declaration accomplishes four key things in our spiritual lives. It opens heaven's gates through praise, grants us permission to access our authority as joint heirs with Christ, helps us surrender control to God's perfect will, and serves as our confession of God's unchanging sovereignty. When we declare these words, we shift the spiritual atmosphere and position ourselves to receive everything God wants to give us.

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Eleven
Scripture reveals that Jesus constantly intercedes for us at the Father's right hand. When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we can envision Jesus translating each petition to the Father on our behalf. As we ask for God's name to be hallowed, Jesus tells the Father how we want Him at the center of our lives. When we pray for His kingdom to come, Jesus asks the Father to expand His work in our lives. Each petition becomes an opportunity for Jesus to advocate for God's perfect will, provision, forgiveness, protection, and glory to be manifest.

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Ten
Scripture consistently portrays God as a deliverer who sees His people's suffering and actively intervenes. From the Exodus, where God declared He had come to deliver His people from Egyptian bondage, to Daniel's rescue from the lion's den, to Hezekiah's miraculous deliverance from the Assyrian army, we see a pattern of divine rescue. These accounts reveal God's character as one who responds to desperate cries for help with swift and decisive action. And the beautiful truth is that He still delivers His children today. Whatever it might be that you need rescuing from, call out to Him today.Join Us In Person on Sundays:10:00AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

Jesus Is Everything | Vince Antonucci
Jesus told two parables about people who found treasures so valuable they sold everything to obtain them. This illustrates the truth that Jesus is worth more than anything else we could possess. When we truly understand His value, we experience deep satisfaction and joy that nothing else can provide. It also encourages us to share this with others around us.

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Nine
When Jesus taught us to pray 'Lead us not into temptation,' He wasn't suggesting God tempts us. God tests us through external circumstances to build spiritual maturity, while Satan uses our deceitful hearts to turn these tests into internal temptations toward sin. The key difference is purpose: God's tests refine and strengthen our faith, while temptations seek to destroy it. We must learn to watch and pray, recognizing that spiritual warfare is ongoing throughout our lives. Rather than treating persistent sins like comfortable companions, we need to wage aggressive war against them using Scripture, prayer, fasting, and biblical community as our weapons.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Eight
The fifth petition of the Lord's Prayer reveals a revolutionary approach to relationships through forgiveness. Understanding how much God has forgiven us becomes the foundation for forgiving others. This petition impacts our relationships with fellow believers, unbelievers, and future connections God wants to bring into our lives. On the other hand, unforgiveness opens doors to the enemy and creates bitterness that affects not just us, but everyone around us. True forgiveness is unconditional, reflecting Christ's sacrifice on the cross. When we choose to forgive, we become unoffendable and demonstrate the radical love of God's kingdom to a watching world.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Six
When Jesus taught us to pray 'Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,' He was inviting us into a restoration of what was lost in Eden. The fall began not with behavior, but with distrust when Adam and Eve chose their will over God's good will. In this week's message, April walks us through "Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." And it's our prayer that the Father's good and perfect will would come in your life today!Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Five
When Jesus taught us to pray "Thy kingdom come," He was inviting us to ask for God's perfect reign to be established in our lives. The Kingdom of God isn't a distant place but refers to God's rule and authority. This Kingdom is both a present reality and a future hope awaiting complete fulfillment.Throughout the Old Testament, God desired to rule His people directly, but they repeatedly chose human kings who ultimately failed. Jesus came as the perfect King, demonstrating a Kingdom that operates through sacrifice and service rather than force and power. When we pray for God's Kingdom to come, we're asking Him to replace our imperfect rule with His perfect governance in every area of our lives. Listen to Pastor Corey’s message this week on this petition of The Prayer and letting God’s Kingdom reign in your life.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Four
The first petition of the Lord's Prayer, "Hallowed be Your name," is not just worship but an active request for God to make His name great in our specific circumstances. Rather than simply acknowledging God's holiness, we're asking Him to set His name apart and make it treasured in our marriages, workplaces, communities, and hearts. This petition comes first because when God's glory takes priority, everything else falls into proper perspective.

The Prayer: From Routine to Revival - Part Three
Prayer has never been about convincing God to do something. We can tend to forget our position as children of a loving Father. When you know who your Father is, you know what you carry into every situation - victory, peace, provision, healing, and hope. Are you living with the confidence of a child of the King, or are you still trying to earn what's already yours?Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

What if the reason your prayers feel powerless has nothing to do with your technique and everything to do with your heart posture? Jesus gave specific warnings about how NOT to pray that reveal the secret to effective communication with the Father. Are you praying to be seen by others or genuinely seeking your Heavenly Father in the secret place? Our Father knows your needs before you ask and is eager to give you good gifts - but first, you need to understand that your access to Him isn't based on your performance.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

Thank you for tuning in to the final week of teaching on the book of Joel! This week, Pastor Gene wraps things up talking about how our Heavenly Father is a God of restoration.

Rend Your Heart: Living a Life of Complete Surrender - Part Two
The Book of Joel serves as a training manual for spiritual maturity, revealing that the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2 came through intentional prayer; but not just any prayer- specifically the Lord's Prayer. Joel prophesies of an ultimate Day of the Lord that will be positive for the prepared but terrible for the unprepared. God uses judgment not from cruelty, but to wake people up through economic collapse, natural disasters, and other life-altering circumstances. Enjoy this rich teaching today, and may we all be found preparing now for the coming Day of the Lord.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

Rend Your Heart: Living a Life of Complete Surrender - Part One
The church today faces a critical choice between spiritual comfort and maturity. Many believers never grow beyond spiritual milk to the meat of God's Word. The Book of Joel, particularly Chapter 2, serves as an instruction manual for end-times preparation. When 120 believers in Acts prayed the Lord's Prayer for ten days, heaven responded with Pentecost. This same pattern applies today - a Joel 2 culture of united prayer leads to Acts 2 outpouring. God promises restoration through grain (provision), new wine (joy), and oil (anointing) for those who embrace deeper spiritual maturity and prepare for the day of the Lord.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceFollow Our Socials:Instagram - @thegatheringchurchtnFacebook - www.facebook.com/GatheringFamily

Missed Moments: Part Four
Many believers sense there's more to their faith journey but struggle to recognize God's invitations. Just as the grave, womb, land, and fire cry out when not fulfilling their purpose, you were created with a divine assignment that brings fulfillment. God draws near at specific moments, offering healing and transformation, but not everyone allows Him to complete His work. When you consistently respond to His invitations, you progress through stages of spiritual growth - from recognizing your thirst to impacting your environment.

Missed Moments: Part Three
God extends one of the greatest invitations ever offered - to seek Him while He may be found. Every person was created with divine purpose, yet many miss monumental spiritual moments due to busyness, comparison, or distraction. Isaiah 55:6 presents an urgent command to actively pursue God during favorable seasons when He draws near. This isn't casual advice but a time-sensitive opportunity to receive what money cannot buy: peace, purpose, healing, and abundant life. When God is near, expectations rise, comparisons fade, and prayers deepen.

Missed Moments: Part Two
Every person faces divine moments where they can either capture God's opportunities or let them slip away. Through the stories of the rich fool, the rich young ruler, and the sacrificial widow, we learn that God measures our offerings not by their size but by what they cost us personally. The danger lies in placing our confidence in wealth rather than in God. When we give sacrificially rather than comfortably, we demonstrate trust in God's provision over our financial security. The question isn't how much we can give, but how much it will cost us and where we're truly placing our trust. We hope you enjoy this teaching today, and pray that you will capture each moment God gives you.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching Service

Missed Moments: Part One
God positions us for divine moments that can change everything, but we must choose whether to capture them or let them slip away. There are stories woven throughout Scripture of people capturing moments and those who missed it. When Moses struck the rock in anger instead of speaking to it as God commanded, his emotional outburst cost him entry into the Promised Land. Our missed moments don't just affect us - they impact families, communities, and future generations. May we consider the consequences, slow down to hear His voice, and obey when each moment comes our way.Join us in person on Sundays!9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching Service

The Book of Ephesians: Part Eight
The Christian life is a battleground, not a playground. The Apostle Paul makes clear in Ephesians 6 that believers are soldiers in God's army, fighting not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil in heavenly places. The Enemy is cunning, calculated, and methodical, and knows each of our weaknesses. However, God has given us everything we need to stand firm. Prayer is essential warfare, and God's Word is your primary weapon. Before we can walk in spiritual maturity, we must first learn to stand firm against the enemy's attacks. This requires studying of God's Word, developing strong prayer habits, and actively strengthening ourselves in the Armor of God.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Wednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomWeekly Intercession meetingsText "PRAY" to (865) 505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

The Book of Ephesians: Part Seven
Biblical marriage is a sacred covenant designed to reflect Christ's relationship with His church, not merely a romantic partnership or legal contract. This covenant sustains love through difficult seasons, unlike feelings-based relationships. Wives are called to submit to their husbands as to the Lord, while husbands must love sacrificially as Christ loved the church. Both roles require dying to self and allowing God's transformation. Successful marriages survive challenges through honest communication, prayer, and remembering they are one flesh before God. We hope you enjoy hearing from our elders on this topic!

The Book of Ephesians: Part Six
Paul's letter to the Ephesians shifts from theological foundations to practical Christian living, emphasizing the importance of walking worthy of our calling. This worthy walk is characterized by five key qualities: humility, gentleness, patience, bearing with one another in love, and eagerness to maintain unity. Paul warns against spiritual immaturity, lacking humility, and being tossed around by every wind of doctrine. The solution involves speaking truth in love while remaining grounded in the gospel. Spiritual maturity cannot be achieved in isolation but requires committed participation in Christian community, where believers grow together toward the measure of the stature of Christ.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Wednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomWeekly Intercession meetingsText "PRAY" to (865) 505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

The Book of Ephesians: Part Five
Many believers struggle with anxiety, unworthiness, anger, and insecurity because they haven't fully embraced their true identity in Christ. In chapter 3 of Ephesians, Paul confirms that identity that we are to live in. He then concludes the chapter praying for supernatural understanding of God's immeasurable love - a love that surpasses human knowledge. When we're rooted and grounded in this love, we can experience exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think. The transformation is evident in Paul himself, who went from persecuting Christians to becoming the greatest missionary in history through one encounter with God's love. Our prayer for you today is that you would have that same encounter with the Father's love!Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Wednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomWeekly Intercession meetingsText "PRAY" to (865) 505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

The Book of Ephesians: Part Four
Paul reveals in Ephesians 2:11-22 how Jesus demolished the barriers between Jews and Gentiles. Through His death on the cross, Jesus didn't just provide individual salvation but created supernatural community where former enemies become family. The same principle applies today as believers often create dividing walls over worship styles, politics, and cultural differences. Jesus calls us beyond casual Christianity to deep community where we find our primary identity in Him rather than our differences. When Christ becomes our cornerstone, the walls separating believers crumble, allowing God's presence to dwell fully in the unified community He died to create.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Wednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomWeekly Intercession meetingsText "PRAY" to (865) 505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's tragic assassination, we wanted to take a break from our study on the book of Ephesians to pray as a church family for the Kirk's, our nation, and Gen Z, whom Charlie had a major impact on. We reflect on his profound impact as a voice of faith and conviction, especially for younger generations. Kirk's legacy as a revivalist for Gen Z has sparked a spiritual awakening, with many young people being stirred in their faith.

As we bring the teaching of the book of Haggai to a close, Pastor takes a look at how Zerubbabel and Joshua finish their assignments well. Although they abandoned their divine assignments and misplaced their priorities, Haggai shows us that it's by the grace of God that they are able to realign with God's purpose and finish strong. The sobering reality is that statistically, the minority finish well while the majority do not. For every ten who start the journey with God, perhaps only two will finish stronger than they began.

The Book of Haggai: Absence vs. Absenteeism - Part Fourteen
Discover the powerful spiritual principle of waiting between divine promises and their fulfillment. Today's message from Pastor Gene and Karen reveals why God often places a gap between giving us a promise and its manifestation—not as punishment, but as essential preparation. God uses waiting periods to check your motives, mold your character, test your trust, and strengthen your faith. The message provides practical insights on how walking in holiness during waiting seasons impacts not just individuals but entire families, creating generational blessings.

The journey of holiness is essential to our relationship with God, as Scripture declares that without it, no one will see the Lord. Holiness cannot be transferred through association with godly people or church attendance—it's a personal journey requiring active participation. It means being of one mind with God, hating what He hates and loving what He loves.

There are times in our lives when God will stir our spirits up. This divine disruption serves a purpose - to wake us up spiritually before we miss our destiny. When we respond correctly to God's stirring by accepting correction, He promises to be with us in everything He's called us to do.

As we allow ourselves to be God's dwelling place, we become sanctuaries of peace with rivers of blessing flowing through us.

The Book of Haggai: Absence vs. Absenteeism - Part Nine
God has a specific purpose for your life that isn't random or accidental. The book of Haggai teaches us to stop comparing ourselves to others and instead recognize the divine purpose God has placed within us. We're called to 'be strong and work' while trusting in God's presence with us. Before God releases something new, He often shakes things up in our lives. The obstacles between us and our purpose can be overcome not by our own strength, but through God's grace and Spirit as we declare 'Grace, grace' over our mountains.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Weekly Intercession MeetingsWednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomText "prayer" to (865)505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

The Book of Haggai: Absent vs. Absenteeism - Part Eight
Are your priorities aligned with God's heart? In Haggai, God rebuked His people for living in beautiful houses while His temple lay in ruins. Their misplaced priorities led to perpetual dissatisfaction—eating without being filled, earning wages that disappeared into purses with holes. The beauty of the rebuke is that the rewards of responding to it far outweigh the rebuke itself. Pastor Gene takes a deep dive into this truth this week.

Where Two Or More Gather
This message challenges common misconceptions about church attendance; one being that community isn't the purpose of gathering—it's the product. Many Christians depend on Sunday church attendance because they neglect personal devotion throughout the week. Discover the profound truth from Ephesians 2 that we, as believers, are being built together into God's dwelling place. Learn how consistent encounters with God transform us from mere churchgoers to living sanctuaries where His presence dwells.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Weekly Intercession MeetingsWednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer RoomText "prayer" to (865)505-8312 for our current prayer schedule.

The Book of Haggai: Absence vs. Absenteeism - Part Seven
Are you doing all the right things but still experiencing lack? This powerful teaching examines Haggai 1:6, where God points out a frustrating cycle many believers experience - working hard but seeing little return because of misaligned priorities. God never intended for you to live in scarcity - abundance is your inheritance! Whether you're facing financial struggles, relationship problems, or emotional emptiness, these biblical principles provide practical steps to move from scarcity to God's abundance.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Weekly Intercession MeetingsWednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer Room

The Book of Haggai: Absence vs. Absenteeism - Part Six
Are your priorities aligned with God's purposes or your own comfort? The ancient book of Haggai reveals how easily we can start strong spiritually but gradually drift toward self-focus. What 'paneled houses' are you building while God's work remains undone? Discover what it means to be part of the remnant that's restoring what's been lost in the church today.Join Us In Person on Sundays:9:30AM - Prayer Service10:30AM - Teaching ServiceHouse of Prayer:Weekly Intercession MeetingsWednesdays 6-8PM - Prayer Room
