“The table I long for—the church I hope for—is a place where we let others see where the spirit meets the bone and help heal the wounds.
The table I long for—the church I hope for—has the grace of the Gospel as its magnificent centerpiece.
The table I long for—the church I hope for—is where we care more about our companions than about winning our arguments with them, where we set aside the condescension that accompanies our notion that we need to bring them our truth.
The table I long for—the church I hope for—has each of you sitting around it, struggling to hold the knowledge that you, vulnerable you and courageous you, are beloved by God, not just welcome but desperately, fiercely wanted.”
