Synopsis

In this sermon, we explore the profound significance of feasting in the way of Jesus, juxtaposing it with Herod's feast of scarcity, exclusion, and death. You'll be inspired by stories of past community feasts and challenged to practice hospitality and generosity in a world often marked by division, echoing Pádraig Ó Tuama's call to "flex the muscles of hospitality" in the face of hostility. Reflect on the Feeding of the Five Thousand (Matthew 14:13-21) as a transformative invitation to embrace abundance and radical inclusion, and join us in finding life and hope at the table, where everyone has a seat and there's always enough.
