I am grateful for big tables. We inaugurated our Navasota redevelopment project with a gathering of friends from our small group back in 2021 during a break in the COVID pandemic. It was a wonderful evening. Yesterday I was excited to hear about Big Table. It’s a ministry to the workers in the hospitality and service industry. They have a long portable table that seats 48 people. Big Table provides a seven course chef dinner to the servers who normally serve others. People are referred to Big Table and gifted with the incredible experience — no strings attached — just one incredible meal. Jesus said it is more blessed to give than receive, and a big table blesses us with an opportunity to give, the opportunity to receive, and when the food and wine is flowing it’s hard to separate who’s giving and who’s receiving. That’s how it should be. That is our faith. Someday we will be feasting forever at the wedding feast of the Lamb sitting at one incredibly big table!
