October 9-11 | Starting at $1200The fALL GATHerING: GALLATiN, TENNESSEE
As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, something ancient stirs in us—the longing to return to what is slow, rooted, and real.
The Gospel tells us that Jesus came so we might have life, and have it to the fullest. Yet many of us have inherited a version of faith that asks us to be smaller, quieter, more compliant. A faith that says: manage your questions. Manage your desires. Manage your body. Be happy. Be faithful. Don’t ask too much.
But there are women who know in their bones that the Christian faith is far wilder, far more embodied, far more alive than this. Women who long to encounter the feminine heart of God—the creative, generative, fierce, compassionate face of Christ that Scripture reveals but our churches often won’t speak aloud.
If that is you, you are not alone. And this fall, we are gathering.
We are Gathering the Women.
Teaching sessions rooted in Scripture, Christian mysticism, myth, and embodied theology. We explore what the feminine heart of God reveals that we have been missing. How Jesus models initiation, suffering, and resurrection. How the seasons of the earth and the liturgical calendar call us into deeper spiritual formation. The Gospel—read more slowly, more fully, more freely.
❋ Large Group TeachingsSmaller, hands-on sessions in embodied practices, ritual, and the real questions of your life:
What does it mean to parent wisely?
How do we reclaim our bodies from numbness?
What does initiation look like—as maiden, as mother, as wise woman?
How do we build ritual into ordinary life?
❋ WorkshopsLed by experienced guides who know how to hold space, encourage presence, and stoke a spark for more.

❋ Expert FacilitationEight to ten women gathered in an intimate space, led by a Thresholds graduate—a woman who has already walked this path and knows how to hold others in it. Witnessing space where women can name what is landing, what is stirring, and who they are becoming. Where they can look around the room and realize: I am not alone in this. This is where the village is found.
❋ Small Group Processing
The Fall Gathering is a weekend where women come together to read Scripture differently, encounter the Gospel in its fullness, and discover their people.
A gathering of embodied theology. Of Christian women who are poets, mystics, storytellers, and questioners. Women who love Jesus and refuse to shrink. Women who understand that suffering and beauty are both sacred. That the earth matters. That your body matters. That the feminine expression of faith is not a footnote to the Gospel—it is the Gospel itself.
Together, we will:
Explore Scripture and the Gospel through the lens of the feminine alongside of the masculine
Gather in large group teaching spaces where we speak what the church often whispers
Move through embodied practices and ritual rooted in Christian tradition
Sit in small groups with women who understand what you are actually after
Feast together around a harvest table
Find your village
This weekend holds space for women who have walked deep spiritual work before and women who are curious for the first time. You do not need to be strong or ready. You only need to be willing.
This Gathering Is for You If You…
Feel the weight of a faith that asks you to be smaller than you are
Crave encounter with the feminine heart of God
Long to read Scripture as alive, embodied, mystical, and true
Are ready to find your people—women who speak your language
Want to move from isolated questioning into rooted community
Understand that being human means holding both beauty and brokenness
