Women at The Table gatherings create sacred space where joy is multiplied and community is built. It’s a low-stakes way to get to know others by gathering with other women and connecting over drinks, snacks, and conversation in a smaller group setting. We start the evening with an introduction question, a devotion, and then someone shares their story.

At our March gathering, Sara asked everyone share a book, music, podcast, or practice that gives them inspiration or connection to their faith. Here is the list our group curated together:
