Are you surrounded by people but still feeling lonely or disconnected?In this conversation, Kristin talks with Pastor Ian Simkins, author of Every Table Is an Altar, about why gathering around the table may be one of the simplest and most meaningful ways to rebuild connection, strengthen families, and live out our faith.Ian shares how Jesus used ordinary meals to welcome people, restore dignity, and create a sense of belonging. You will hear why presence matters more than a perfect home or elaborate meal, how phones and constant distraction are weakening our relationships, and why repeated time together is what turns acquaintances into close friends.Kristin and Ian also discuss the emotional and relational benefits of family meals, simple ways to protect undistracted time, and how to practice Christian hospitality without adding more pressure to your life.You do not need a beautiful dining room, an impressive menu, or a perfectly planned gathering. You simply need a willingness to make room, pull up another chair, and welcome someone in.If you have been craving deeper friendships, a stronger family connection, or a more tangible way to share God’s love, this episode will help you see your table and your everyday life differently.Takeaways• Why shared meals can ease loneliness and help people feel seen and known• How Jesus used the table to welcome outsiders and build genuine community• Why presence matters more than productivity, presentation, or a perfect meal• How phones and digital distractions interfere with closeness and conversation• Why consistent invitations often build stronger friendships than occasional large gatherings• How regular family meals can support children’s emotional health, communication, and sense of belonging• The difference between biblical hospitality and entertaining or impressing people• Practical ways to create phone free meals and protect meaningful time together• How to welcome neighbors, friends, and people who may otherwise feel forgotten• Why every Christian can use ordinary meals to embody the love and grace of JesusConnect with Ian at https://iansimkins.com/ or check out his book Every Table is an Alter: Reclaiming Connection in a World of DIvision, Distraction and LonelinessOther books I shared on today's episodeThe Turquoise TableJust Open the DoorFind Your PeopleTaste and SeeStart with Rest Workbook- download hereGrab the Rewire Your Mind: From Negativity to Joy- download here.Grab the Joy Rising- Daily Gratitude & Joy Journal here.Download My Free Joyful Living Devotional: https://kristinfitch.com/devotionalReady to take your first step towards a more joyful, faith-filled life?
