In ROOM AT MY TABLE, Evelyn Bence offers 52 delightful meditations that emphasize Christian love as the foundation of gracious hospitality. Bence invites readers to “come along” --- you, too, can reach out and extend invitations to “break bread” or drink coffee at your table.

Bence’s grace-filled readings provide spiritual inspiration for the seasoned hostess alongside gentle domestic instruction laced with realistic expectations for the novice. She even includes favorite recipes. Short closing prayers and questions for reflection allow readers to personalize Evelyn’s devotional anecdotes.
