<link>http://www.thegatheringnc.org</link>
<description>theGathering is a community of Christ-followers who desire to be the church. Our passion is to rediscover what it means to live lives that impact the community and honor God in a time and place when most think the church irrelevant, narrow-minded and judgmental.

The truth is life is filled with times of great excitement, confusion, anticipation and disappointment. We do not have it all figured out but we are committed to following the one person we know will help us make sense of the journey, and that person is Jesus.</description>

  <title>They forgot the song they sang so they began to complain</title>
  <description>No sooner than God rescued His people from Egypt, they began to complain about wanting to go back and be slaves again.  Often it is easier and more comfortable to remain slaves than to walk in the wilderness and be free.  God takes us all to the wilderness so we can learn to trust Him.  And as we learn to trust, we began to reflect to the world.</description>

  <title>A New Kind of Thinking [audio]</title>
  <description>Unfortunately a lot of people have reduced Christianity down to me, Jesus, and a one way ticket to heaven.  But thereâ€™s more to it than that, thereâ€™s a greater story, a movement of people, and the revealing of a great mystery.  And in order to see this incredible story as it was meant to be seen takes a new kind of thinking.  </description>

  <title>Green [audio]</title>
  <description>Godâ€™s command to fill the earth and subdue it was intended not only as a provision, but also as a responsibility.  It is the church with its God mandated commission to be stewards of creation that should be leading the â€œgreenâ€ discussion.  Unfortunately the church has allowed the world to take control of the agenda of the discussion.  Much of the agenda of the â€œgreenâ€ movement has elevated those things created on days one through five to a higher value than those created on day six.  It is here that Christians need to reassume their rightful place in the discussion, take seriously the charge that we are to be stewards of the environment, with the understanding that while all of creation was declared good by God, only one part was created in his image, and that was man.</description>

  <title>Ecclesiastes 3:16 - 4:6 [audio]</title>
  <description>In Ecclesiastes 3:16-4:6, our friend Solomon seems to be speaking to our American culture of excess; we have everything under the sun.  We have clean drinking water, High Definition TV, entertainment at our finger tips, and wealth (even our poor in American are wealthy compared to the rest of the world).  Yet many of us find life meaningless. We see affluence and wickedness mingled together.   How can we not have meaning in life when we have so much?  Could it be that we have no meaning in life because we do not allow the Meaningful One to unify our lives under His Lordship?  Join Pastor Derwin Gray as we continue our series &quot;When It's All Said And Done.&quot;</description>

  <title>Ecclesiastes 2 :12-26 [audio]</title>
  <description>King Solomon had spent his life pursuing wisdom, pleasure and his  
work.  He is now at the end of his life and realizing that where he has invested his life, and how he has defined himself has not provided him the true satisfaction he so longed for.  Come listen as King Solomon begins to reflect on where this true satisfaction is found.</description>

  <title>Ecclesiastes 1:12-18 [audio]</title>
  <description>How can a man like Solomon who has everything 'under the sun'  
see life as meaningless?  I think Solomon is speaking to the  
American Church; could it be that we too find life meaningless  
because we' have placed more value on chasing the American Dream  
instead of living life in the Kingdom of God?  Join Pastor Derwin a  
few minutes into his message as he passionately tries to persuade  
the church to live in the Son of God instead of 'under the sun'.

  <title>Perspective [audio]</title>
  <description>Life can be a bit difficult to interpret if we donâ€™t have the  
right perspective.  Too often we buy into secular humanist thinking  
that says weâ€™re at the center of the universe and everything  
begins and ends with us.  But weâ€™re not and it doesnâ€™t!  Join us  
as we jump into the first part of our series in Ecclesiastes and  
discover that everything â€œunder the sunâ€ only reminds us how  
much life is not about what we do or what we have.</description>

  <title>Jonah 3 [audio]</title>
  <description>In spite of what many of us learned as kids, the giant fish is only a minor player in the book of Jonah.  The real star of this book is God.  God pursued Jonah despite his failure and Godâ€™s heart beats for the Ninevites despite their violent ways.  Listen as Pastor Derrick takes a personal journey through Jonah chapter 3 to see the heart of God for people.

  <title>Jonah 2 [audio]</title>
  <description>Turning points.  We all have times in our life where dramatic change occurs.  This is a turning point.  Jonah had a turning point in a strange place; in the belly of great fish.  Journey with Pastor D. Gray as he explores how Jonah's turning point can be a turning point for us.  Here's a few questions: Does sharing Jesus with others have to be a program or production?  Does it have to be an awkward used car salesmen's experience?  Is it possible to just to love people instead of viewing them as &quot;conversion prospects&quot;?  Listen to find out.

  <title>Jonah 1:4-17 [audio]</title>
  <description>The story of Jonah is more than a man getting swallowed by a freakishly large catfish or something.  It's a story about God's missional heart to reach people that are disconnected from Him.  Join Pastor Derwin as he teaches on Jonah 1:4-17.</description>

  <title>LOVE [audio]</title>
  <description>It's hard enough just to like some people and yet God has called us to love people.  To love fully requires us to set our gaze on the One who is perfect love Himself.  Even though culture has aided in marring the beauty of God's love, through Jesus we can know, experience, and give love as He brings us out of the gray to discover the vibrancy of love in and through Him.</description>

  <title>Lover and a Fighter [audio]</title>
  <description>We are people of extremes.  One of the hardest things for any person to do is live balanced.  Either we think everything is dependent upon us or we expect everything to be done for us.  Unfortunately, we have overlaid this life of extremes on our faith, thinking it is up to us to keep God happy or just sitting around waiting for the heaven bus to pick us up.  Instead our faith is a symphonic harmony of our loving response to the work of Jesus. </description>

  <title>Freed By Faith To Love [audio]</title>
  <description>The Ten Commandments (The Law) demands that we love God and neighbor; the only problem is that the Law cannot empower us to do it and then it condemns us when we fail to measure up.  Grace on the other hand, not only demands that we love God and neighbor, it also supplies us with the power to do it!  In this teaching, experience how Jesus sets us free to love.</description>
