This year’s a bit strange cause none of us have celebrated Thanksgiving during a pandemic in the middle of a contentious election cycle. And many of you have shared your angst about what could happen around the table. There’s potential for explosive conversations that could harm relationships. Or maybe for some of you, the time around the table is just, well, boring. No one ever really says anything, just a lot of small talk, and you usually leave feeling like it was a waste of time. <br /><br />So I thought, what if this year we got intentional about our time around the table. What if we could mitigate boring or charged conversations by offering an alternative.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1467</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>clean</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/298b63737649f66cd9b7c2c569f43b9f.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>#32 A Word From God, we Need It!</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/12334797/32-a-word-from-god-we-need-it</link><description><![CDATA[It has been a week since the US Presidential Election.

The Table. It’s is a place people gather and eat, or noticeably didn’t. The table or the lack thereof communicates something about our family and upbringing; it was around the table that values and social norms imparted and social etiquette requested.    That social upheaval around the table was even more so during Jesus’ day. In antiquity eating around the table established boundaries around who was in and who was out.

Isn’t that what every Christian couple does when they have marriage problems, I think it’s why Steve and I were never asked to counsel engaged couples at our church!  So, I got pregnant while living in the van. And that took my life in a direction I had never envisioned. I never wanted to be a mom.
