Reimagining Faith with the Pastors Jackson
Nichole and Zack Jackson are the pastors of Open Table UCC in Pottstown, PA. We left our separate churches in May of 2022 to plant a new faith community that is theologically progressive, Pottstown focused, with Jesus at the center. We want to unpack what all that means while also giving you an inside-look into the messiness of starting a new church. We’re going to talk to some incredible difference-makers while taking a deep dive into matters of justice, equality, and the revolutionary stories within the Christian scriptures.

Reflecting the Sacred with Laura Johnson
Friday Dec 09, 2022
Friday Dec 09, 2022
Episode 12
This Advent at Open Table, we are working on a series called "Reflecting the Sacred" in which we are contemplating the many ways that the Divine is reflected (and refracted) in our lives, our world, and each other. So to that end, we are going to be releasing conversations with some of our partners over the next few weeks talking about the ways that they see the divine reflected in their lives.
This week, we are talking to one of our first covenant partners, Laura Johnson! Laura is an advocate, a prophet, and a relentless seeker of authenticity. She describes her journey as one "from certainty to honesty", and we think that many of you will resonate. We talk about finding your power, owning your complexity, and letting go of God. Please share with someone that you think needs to hear these words.
Join us for Sunday worship services at the Steel River Playhouse (245 E High St, Pottstown, PA 19464) at 10am or online at https://www.opentablepottstown.com/live.

Reflecting the Sacred with Rev. Cean James

Friday Dec 02, 2022
Episode 11
This Advent at Open Table, we are working on a series called "Reflecting the Sacred" in which we are contemplating the many ways that the Divine is reflected (and refracted) in our lives, our world, and each other. So to that end, we are going to be releasing conversations with some of our partners over the next few weeks talking about the ways that they see the divine reflected in their lives.
First up is the Rev. Cean James, pastor of Salt and Light Church in Southwest Philly and our Associate Conference Minister for Congregational Development. Cean is a dreamer, a fighter, and a fierce advocate who believes that God is up to something new and subversive in our times. We talked about the future of the Church, the irresistible call of Christ, and the surprising ways that God works on the margins. It's a great conversation, and we think you will love it.
