AN INVITATION TO THE POUR You don’t have to arrive at this new year ready. You don’t have to be clear, energized, or certain about what comes next. You only have to arrive honestly. This Soul Pour was created for those who are entering the year carrying more than they expected—hope and weariness, faith and questions, gratitude and grief all at the same time. Before goals are written and plans take shape, God offers something simpler: a cup. A place to receive before you are asked to give. A pause before the pouring out begins again. Find your perfect spot. Reach for your favorite cup to sip from. Let this be a time to offer care to your own soul. Take what you need. Sit with what resonates. Rest where you feel tired. This is not about starting the year strong. It is about staying filled, There is always room at the table.

A Gathering Table Christmas Soul Pour Christmas has always been a season filled with light, beauty, and celebration. But if we pause long enough to sit with the story, we discover something even more tender woven into the heart of it: Jesus arrived in a place that wasn’t ready. Not in a palace. Not in a prepared room. Not in a space that made sense. He was welcomed into a manger — a simple, humble corner of the world that most people would have overlooked. And yet… joy filled it instantly. This is the wonder of Christmas: God does not wait for perfection before He comes. He meets us right in the middle of our real, ordinary, messy, unfolding lives and brings joy with Him

This Seat Is Yours

For when a sip isn’t enough.

You’ve been pouring into others all week—now it’s time to refill your own cup.
Soul Pour is a deeper devotional experience from The Gathering Table, designed for those who are ready for more than just a moment. This isn’t a quick sip—this is a sacred pour for your soul.

Each 3–5 day journey invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with God in the quiet places of your life. Through scripture, reflection, and journaling prompts, Soul Pour helps you make space for your healing, your questions, your becoming.

Come as you are. Stay as long as you need. Let the pour begin.

People get excited about the fall season, with its weather being perfect for sweaters. A person gets to pair sweaters with all types of fashion options—from jeans, boots, skirts, shorts, and Crocs. The various ways people show off their sweaters made me think: do we ever consider the change to fall as an opportunity to show off what God saw us through during the previous season? This devotional is an invitation to pause and reflect on the layers of God’s faithfulness. Each day offers space to slow down, breathe, and wear gratitude as a visible testimony of His goodness.

You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your carts overflow with abundance.” — Psalm 65:11 (NIV)

There’s a rhythm to God’s abundance — it gathers, nourishes, and makes room for all that we are. This Soul Pour invites you to taste the goodness of a life that welcomes every color of your story — the radiant and the quiet, the seen and the still-becoming.
