The table has a way of unmasking us. Revealing our imperfections and woundedness. This tendency challenges us in at least two ways.
First, how do we join a table that should be a place of unity, community, and joy in the midst of our brokenness?
Second, how do we respond with compassion when we encounter someone else’s brokenness?
These questions are unavoidable if we want to experience the joy of the table.
In brokenness, we gather, but in gathering, we are made whole.
I’m thrilled to gather at the table with my friend, Angie Smith. Author of Chasing God, her words and insights… are a feast! Angie is hilarious—and her laugh is contagious.
In one of my favorite parts of the interview, she shares two words you can speak when you feel overwhelmed by the brokenness of life.
I really believe they have the power to set you free.
