Help Rapt Keep Going!

If a Rapt conversation has stayed with you — if an interview, list, or essay has nudged you to see God differently or to love Him in a new way — thank you for coming here.

Now, we need your help.

Rapt is 100% reader‑supported. There’s no paywall, no subscription, no corporate sponsor behind the scenes. It continues only because a small group of readers who’ve been helped choose to give back—so everyone else can keep reading for free.

Will you be one of those readers?

If you’re able, please give as generously as you can.

We can’t do this without you.

Today I heard God say to go to Him. I opened up the Bible app, searched, and the first result was your devotional Lean In. It is just cool how God knows our hearts better than we do.

We are actively listening for God’s guidance. Here’s just a taste of what’s in store for you and the entire Gather community:

Loop Collective – Loop Collective offers Loop women community groups that foster a sense of unity and belonging, providing support through heartfelt conversations and vulnerability; creativity workshops that foster contemplation and creative exploration of our hearts as we pursue God’s love and healing; and exclusive teaching that helps us engage with God authentically and meaningfully and deepen our faith.

Rapt Interviews – From tech to art to books to habits, Rapt is an award-winning site for busy but thirsty people of faith who want to live every day with one foot in this world and one in the world to come. Our exclusive database of 100s of conversations with Christian thought leaders allows us to curate an essential selection of ideas and resources to brighten the next stretch of your spiritual journey.

Here Are Some Frequently Asked Questions About Gather Ministries

1. What is Gather Ministries?

Founded in 2013 by Jennifer and Justin Camp, husband and wife writers in the San Francisco Bay Area, Gather Ministries is the Christian nonprofit behind Rapt Interviews, WiRE for Men, Loop for Women, the Rush Podcast and FLAG Messages. Justin, Jennifer, and the rest of the Gather team are passionate about helping busy, modern men and women connect with God. With honest teaching about who He is and who we are, they try to write and create things that are beautiful and stirring, yet stripped-down and unpretentious.

2. Why does Gather raise money?

Producing and delivering email devotionals, apps, interviews, articles, and other great resources requires money. Still, we believe God called us to offer almost everything we create for free to anyone who wants it. So, instead of charging for our content, we reach out once or twice a year to those who have benefited from our work to ask them to partner with us by making a cheerful, reciprocal donation. In a real way, therefore, these ministries wouldn’t exist but for the generosity of people like you.

Here’s what we know: We know how to work hard and bring you the very best stuff — great messages of God’s goodness and love that will encourage you, equip you, and that you can fit into even your busiest days.

And here’s our promise to you: We will be careful stewards of this ministry and its resources, keeping our organization and our expenses — people, hosting, marketing — as lean as possible.

3. How can my single donation help?

Our messages of God’s goodness and love are delivered globally through our websites, email devotionals, podcasts, books, and other great resources. Making this happen is a small, efficient team of seven people: two co-executive directors (Jennifer and Justin), a part-time chief of staff, a part-time creative director, two part-time editors/writers, and a part-time Facebook Ads specialist.

We do a lot with a very small staff, consistent with our promise to our donors.

Your donations support this team and enable us to create new products, maintain our websites and distribution technologies, and market our offerings to new readers. As a nonprofit, crowdfunded ministry, we rely entirely on generous partners like you, who support our team and allow us to continue producing content that encourages our shared global community and care for people who are hurting, confused, and overwhelmed.

5. What is Gather’s Statement of Faith?

We believe God exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that He is a being of unimaginably wonderful power, goodness, and love. (Psalm 118:1; Psalm 145:1-9; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

We believe the world exists because God created it, that it belongs to Him, and therefore, we should cherish and care for it. (Genesis 1:1; Psalm 24:1-2; Isaiah 40:25-26; 1 Corinthians 10:26)

We believe all human beings have dignity because they were created by God in His own image and great worth because God values them beyond our ability to measure. (Genesis 1:27, 31; Psalm 8:3-6; John 3:16; Romans 5:8)

We believe this world also has pain and suffering because human beings have fallen and sinned and are estranged from God, from each other, from ourselves, and from creation. (Genesis 3:17; Romans 3:23; Colossians 1:21; Titus 3:3)

We believe God will not allow sin and suffering to get the last word but is at work to redeem and reconcile what He has made. (Isaiah 11:6-9; Colossians 1:21-23; Revelation 21:1-5)

We believe God has revealed the truth about Himself in the Old and New Testament scriptures, which are our unique and authoritative guides in faith and action. (Matthew 4:4; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We believe God has expressed Himself uniquely in His Son Jesus, who lived, taught, died, and rose again for our sake. Jesus is our master and teacher and savior and friend and now reigns forever with the Father and the Holy Spirit. (John 14:6-7; Acts 2:32; 1 Corinthians. 15:3-4; Ephesians 2:13; Colossians 1:15-20; Philippians 2:5-11; 1 Timothy 2:5-6)

We believe the Spirit of God is now available so we can be closer to God than the air we breathe. (John 14:26; Acts 1:8; Romans 8:26; Galatians 3:14;Ephesians 1:13-14)

We believe the Church is the community through which God wants to bring love, healing, and growth to the human race, to which He invites everyone willing to follow Jesus to join. (Matthew 18:18-20; John 1:12-13; Acts 1:8; Galatians 3:28; 1 Peter 2:9)

We live in hope because one day Jesus will return, love and justice will prevail, and God will set the world right. (Matthew 24:30-31; Luke 12:40; Romans; 8:37-39; Revelation 21:1-5)
