4th Annual Christian Songwriter's "Gathering"  Summer 2009...

Sometimes you have to put your life on hold and get away from it all just to reconnect with God. Sometimes you just want to be with kindred spirits who share the same passions, the same goals, and the same struggles.  The GATHERING is an attempt to meet both of those needs with both meditative alone time with God, and fellowship with other christian songwriters.

The difference between the GATHERING and a Conference is that we offer a more intimate setting, to get to the heart of the worship, and the heart of the worshipper, the songwriter, the musician.   We offer the participants a time of sharing, fellowship, and collaboration, as well as a time to interact with each other, and to focus on their own personal needs and growth.

 In 2005, a small group of songwriters from across America met in Townsend, Tennessee to connect, reflect, and learn more about their craft. There in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, God showed up, and gave them more than they had been expecting. Eager for more, they scheduled again for 2006, and the number of participants doubled including a couple from overseas. Wanting to allow God to continue this blessing, we have scheduled a "date" with Him this July. If you feel this is something He is calling you to, or just want an excuse to head to the hills, feel free to join us. The only requirements are an open heart and a passion to know God in deeper ways...
