Room At The Table
veryone is welcomed at Christ's table. This holds true for us with our relationships. Do we welcome our friends as well as the ones who have betrayed us?

As Christians, our job is to bring others to Christ rather than scaring them away from the beauty of the Church. How can you feed the one who betrayed you today?
