During our First Sunday Feast Pastor Sara invites us to consider the story of Zaccheus. As Jesus extends the invitation to eat with this less-than-respected man, we have to ask ourselves some questions:
1. What’s happening at the tables in your life?
2. Who are you eating with these days?
3. Who are the people in your life who our society considers “on the fringes”?
4. What are your rhythms of eating with others – what COULD be your rhythms?
5. Who do you want to have dinner with this summer? One neighbor, friend, family member.
6. When was a time you were invited to a table?

WHAT IS GOD SAYING? - Lectio Divina
August 18, 2019 • Sara Wolbrecht
At Salt House, we have a core practice of Hearing God - capturing how we believe that there is holiness all around us, that a Jesus-centered life is one of paying attention and listening. One way we do this is through our regular practice of Lectio Divina - in worship on Sunday, we listen to a passage of scripture, hearing God, hearing connections to our lives and world now. It is that simple - as we build in us the practice of listening, as we learn how to love.
