News from the Gathering

Last Friday in The Gathering, students filled out a survey for MA President Casey Farris. Students were able to anonymously voice their thoughts and opinions, suggestions, and critiques relating to the school. Students also got the opportunity to share where they are in their spiritual walk.

In this week's Gathering, MA Senior Sam Hall shared a message on allowing God to fight our battles. We often think that we can fight our battles completely on our own, but we see in Scripture that our battles belong to the Lord. We can handle more when we are clothed in the Spirit of God.

Romans 8:31b: "If God is for us, who can be against us?"

Deuteronomy 20:4:“For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.”
