Eating Together
In the January edition of Tabletalk magazine, Pastor Camera writes about the blessing of sharing a meal together as Christians now as a beautiful anticipation of the heavenly marriage feast of the Lamb.
Of the practical and spiritual implications, he writes:
In a world where we are growing more divided and isolated, one of the tangible, compelling, and attractive distinctives of the church will be our authentic relationships and loving community. Christians will be people who actually talk to one another face-to-face (2 John 12). Sharing a meal will be an “otherworldly” experience to our otherwise fractured, depersonalized, and hyperindividualized world, and therefore a tremendous witness to the reality of Christ’s kingdom. We have to invite our friends and neighbors to come out into the light of unfiltered relationship both with God and with others. Without such relationships, human flourishing is impossible.
