Your Ordinary Life Is Not Too Small

How do you keep living your regular life when the news is genuinely catastrophic? It's not denial — it's one of the most disorienting feelings of our moment. This week Pastor Anthony Parrott sits with that tension and refuses to offer an easy answer.   Drawing on a post-resurrection story most people overlook, he makes a case that small, ordinary acts — a meal, a text, showing up sad and confused — aren't a consolation prize for people without power. They're actually the model. And that staying at the table, even when you have nothing impressive to offer, might be the most honest form of resistance available.   New to The Table or just stumbling across this? You don't need a faith background to find something here. Come as you are.
