In the first version (yes, there are two) of the fourth commandment (Ex.…

Growing In Faith

Chapter 2 of the book “Growing in Faith” quotes a passage of Richard Rohr to help us understand what faith is: “For Jesus, faith is not opposed to not believing in God, it doesn’t mean you go to church, or that you’re into religion or that you say “Lord, Lord” (Matthew 7:21). Faith for Jesus is the opposite of anxiety.” The story of the Syro-Phoenician woman is a story about faith. It is the story of a “very daring woman”,…

Never Start a Funeral with Logistics

We journey with John’s Gospel in the season of Easter as we practice resurrection through the lens of “The Art of Gathering” by Priya Parker. Priya Parker writes in a section of chapter five titled “Before your event starts, it has begun,” “Your gathering begins at the moment your guests first learn of it. This may sound obvious, but it’s not. If it were obvious, hosts wouldn’t fail to host the pregame for their gathering as often as they do.”…

Don’t Be a Chill Host

We journey with John’s Gospel in the season of Easter as we practice resurrection through the lens of “The Art of Gathering” by Priya Parker. Priya Parker writes, “Now you know how to craft a bold and clear purpose for your gathering and how to close doors based on it. The next step is to think about your role as host. How will you run your gathering? “CHILL” IS SELFISHNESS DISGUISED AS KINDNESS.” Pastor Matt’s message invites reflection on how the Risen One calls us to host. Worship online with thetable.live.
