Synopsis
We go and visit the people whose world has ended--and set up a table
Regard doesn't save people; the good news does. But regard is our most tender, basic, and visible sign that this news is true.
In The Table at the End of the World, chaplain and award-winning author John Andrew Bryant takes us into the ordinary and the heartbreaking--the places where people do their sitting and their eating and their living and their dying. Showing regard is not spectacular. But it is an ordinary thing in a sad place. An ordinary thing at the very heart of what people have lost, all the trouble they're in, and all the lies they've been told.
And in that ordinary thing, Christ shows up.
This is a book about the regard we give to others--how simple presence and care become the most visible sign of the reality of Christ, the forgiveness of sin, and the homecoming offered only in Him. Offered to people as they are, the world as it is, the situation as it stands, and the moments we find ourselves in.
For chaplains, pastors, hospital workers, caregivers, and anyone who has ever sat with a person in their worst moment and wondered what on earth their presence could possibly mean--this book is for you. For everyone else, it is an invitation to see what regard looks like, and why it matters more than we know.
