Zach Nicholson will share with us about the Minding The Gap ministry
Zack Nicholson is the Founder and Executive Director of Minding the Gap. He has served in pastoral ministry since moving to Kansas City from Wichita, KS, in 2007. With a broad range of ministry experience, Zack has primarily worked with adults, overseeing various church outreach initiatives, small group ministries, and founding the church’s men’s ministry. He also served as a chaplain to the Grandview, MO Police and Fire Departments.
In 2016, the Lord started to shift Zack’s attention toward the next generation. He became his church’s liaison to public schools through the Caring for Kids Network. As he began to see the dire needs within the schools, he rallied volunteers and resources to serve those needs. Ten years later, youth ministry has become his primary focus.
Zack and his wife, Holli, recently celebrated 25 years of marriage and are the proud parents of five children. Outside of his professional responsibilities, Zack is passionate about ice hockey and can often be found at the rink, coaching his sons’ teams.
Minding the Gap works to bridge both academic and emotional gaps in the lives of children by teaching reading skills, building self-esteem, and promoting healthy connections to caring adults. Each week, our volunteers mentor and tutor children, host after-school Bible clubs, and encourage teachers, so that children become better readers today and discover hope for tomorrow. Currently, we serve over 700 students across four schools. For more information on the Minding the Gap click on mindinggaps.org
The Lord has been speaking to Zack about the Last Judgment as described in Matthew 25:31-46. In this passage, the Lord clearly outlines the criteria by which every person will be judged. Keeping this scripture at the forefront of our minds helps us continually reorient our lives, ensuring they align with what truly matters to God.
