]]>On this very special episode of the Gathering Place podcast, I chat with Fr. Innocent about journeying into the desert with Jesus and his brothers, the annual pilgrimage that inspired our new Lenten devotional for men, Born of Fire.
Only one more week to order Born of Fire, our women's Lenten devotional All She Had, or All You Have (for kids!), to get it in time for Ash Wednesday.
This Lent, we want to pray with you, walk beside you, and become holy - together.

Jenna went into labor on the day we were supposed to finish recording season 9 of the podcast, so Fr. John Parks came to the rescue! Our incredible spiritual advisor sat down for a chat about all things spiritual direction which of course means we ended up talking all about prayer (the best).
If you've ever wondered about spiritual direction, been on the hunt for an ace spiritual director, or tried to start (or restart) a prayer routine, this episode is for you.
Stay tuned next week for the last episode of this season of the Gathering Place with FP. Any guesses what S word we'll be talking about??

This one is close to the heart for us. Jenna and I both suffered so much and so long with sexual sin and we want you to know that if you have too, you're not alone. That if you are struggling now, you are not alone.
Whether it's in your past or in this moment, Jesus wants you to know that He is a Savior, Healer, and Deliverer. He came to save you. He wants to heal you. He will deliver you.
We'd love to share our stories and pray that the grace of God washes over you on this week's episode of the Gathering Place. Watch over on Youtube or listen on your podcast app. Then share it with a friend?
We can't wait for you both to come out of the darkness and step into His light right alongside us.Here's to healing and wholeness in Jesus' name,
❤️BD

All the love you're looking for can be found in that little white Host.
Just in case you've never heard this, Jesus Himself is alive and present in the Most Holy Eucharist. Every Mass, He makes Himself truly present - Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity - to you, for you.
He remains in the tabernacle after every Mass to be visited and consoled, to love and heal you. Go to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. He is waiting to receive you there.

Permission to slow down granted.
Have you been feeling the pressure to get it all done, figure it all out, do it all perfectly - even in prayer? You weren't made for stress and overly committed schedules, you were made for rest.
And if you've been feeling exhausted, discouraged, or frazzled, consider this your sign to scale back all of the doing and learn to just be.

If you've been looking for Someone or Something worth dying for, you've come to the right place. The Gospel is worth it.
Jesus gave everything for you to be with you forever and our response should look the same. Total surrender, complete gift of self, laying down our lives for Love. He is so worthy, friend.

Right here and now, the Lord is knocking on the door of your heart. Jesus desires to be at the center of your life and He is offering His love and life to you, fully and forever. Will you open your hands and receive that gift
If you want to invite Jesus to be at the center of your life, whether for the first time or to renew your commitment, pray with us now:
Father, I believe that You know me and love me. I have not always chosen to love You, and have broken my relationship with You through my sins. Thank You for sending your Son Jesus Who proved Your love for me on the Cross. Lord Jesus, I open the door of my heart and I invite you to be at the center of my life – to be my Savior and my Lord. Direct me and help me to live the Gospel with my whole life. Amen.

Let’s look at where we spend our time, where we give our hearts, where we offer our worship. We are all worshipping something. We are all at the altar of something. Is it our Lord or is it something else? We were made for worship. So let’s give our worship where it is due — to Him.

Sometimes we can look at our lives and ask, "How did I get here?" If you have drifted, you are never too far away for the Lord. Our special guest Christine Caine is here to share with us how we can remember our markers so that we do not drift. We have to have an anchor in this day and that anchor is Jesus Christ.
