In this sermon celebrating Sterling United Methodist Church's 150th anniversary, Pastor Bert uses Isaiah 58 to illustrate how the church has been setting an expanding, imperfect table with Jesus for a century and a half. He contrasts superficial religious observance with God's true "table manners" - breaking chains of injustice, feeding the hungry, and welcoming the stranger - while challenging the congregation to continue "mashing tables together" to serve others as they move into the future.
