The Rev. Jess Cook is the co-founder of a community in Richmond, Virginia, called Every Table. If you visit on a Sunday night, you will probably hear some version of these words: “Jesus didn't have a table; he ate at tables where he was welcomed. Every table where Jesus is welcomed is his table, and every table where he is welcomed also welcomes the disenfranchised masses. Everybody is precious; everyday is holy, every place is sacred.” In part two of our conversation, we talk about Every Table - what it practices and stands for - and we discuss everything from sacred plant medicine to the enticing lure of late-stage capitalism - even in the church.
