Table Centred #4 | Caleb Nicholes. The rhythms of our life are generally table centric. Tables are where we gather, eat, talk, learn, and build relationships.
Discussion Questions
- Andy Crouch in his book ‘The Tech-wise family’ points out, ‘We built bigger houses to make life better, but all we did was make it easier to live apart from the people we love.’ Considering Australia has the biggest houses in the world/human history do you think Crouch’s statement is true?
- Read Deut 6:4-9 together – How does this Prayer (shema) allenge your obedience to God’s commands?
- Ps Caleb presented a table comparing the impact of technology in its ‘proper place’ versus ‘out of place.’ What does this reveal about your home?
- Ps Caleb suggested Three simple next steps for creating a table-centred Home: 1) Renew the tech-wise commitments of your home. 2) Reorder your rituals to promote Prayer & Bible. 3) Reclaim the Table to build deep relationships. How can you implement these steps in your home?
