À propos de ce contenu audio
In this fourth episode of The Table series, we head to South Africa to sit down with René August, a global peace building specialist and Anglican priest. As we approach Easter, René leads us to the communion table, reflecting on the Last Supper as a radical site where Jesus intentionally pauses and rewrites the story. She beautifully describes how the table is a "divine collaborative" space where God’s gifts of wheat and grapes meet our human contribution to become the bread and wine of peace.
Through personal stories of radical hospitality and a deep dive into the Gospels, René challenges us to stop rushing and instead linger at the table. We explore the "self-offering love" of Jesus, which calls us to say yes to being broken and poured out for the benefit of our neighbors. This conversation is a powerful invitation to be truly present—to grab a cup of tea, allow God to stir something new within us, and embrace a radically different way of being in a polarised world.
