<B>Can a barren city lot become a church? </B><BR />  <BR /> This is the story of an audacious journey. It&rsquo;s the story of what happens when people garden, worship, and eat together&mdash;and invite anyone and everyone to join them. In <I>This Is God&rsquo;s Table</I>, writer and pastor Anna Woofenden describes the way that the wealthy and the poor, the aged and the young, the housed and unhoused become a community in this once-empty lot. Together they plant and sustain a thriving urban farm, worship God, and share a weekly meal. Together they craft a shared life and a place of authenticity where all are welcome. Readers of Nadia Bolz-Weber, Sara Miles, and Diana Butler Bass will find here a kindred vision for a church without walls.     <BR />  <BR /> As churches across the Western world wither, what would it take to find a raw, honest, gritty way of doing church&mdash;one rooted in place, nurtured by grace, and grounded in God&rsquo;s expansive love? What would it take to carry the liturgy outside the gates? What if we were to discover that in feeding others, we are fed?<BR />  <BR /> This is God&rsquo;s table. Come and eat.<BR />  <BR />
