About Us

The Remembered Table (TRT) is a place for wounded and weary Christians who have been pushed to the outside of their churches or their own personal limits and have experienced a shakeup of their past faith structures. They may have a variety of hesitations or hindrances to being a part of a faith community, but they seek to rebuild spiritual rhythms while maintaining their wholeness. TRT exists to fill the gap – to help these Christians connect to God, neighbor, and self in safety.

Our Operating Values

  • TRT wants to honor everyone's background, journey, and personhood and create an environment where we learn from a variety of people, communities, and schools of thought. To this end, we are inclusive and seek to uphold diverse voices. Whether race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, theological background, or experiences, we will welcome, accept, and affirm the presence, personhood, and value of every person with us. None shall be excluded from opportunities to participate or to lead based on any of these factors (provided that hate and harm are not part of a person's engagement).

  • Because everyone will be coming with their own set of experiences and challenges, TRT seeks to create supportive spaces for everyone to find their own practices and people rather than prescribing set ways of doing things. Though suggestions will be available if desired.

  • Rather than focusing on rigid dogma, TRT seeks to focus on people. In theology and practice, we want to make room for a variety of beliefs and backgrounds, and we will put the people we serve before the protection of the organization.

  • At TRT, wholeness is paramount. We do not seek to separate our lives into spiritual and physical, intellectual or actionable. We want to help make practice of faith and connection to community simple and meaningful and to create pathways to deeper connection to God and others that honor our becoming as much as our doing or believing.

  • Though development of personal practices will exist, even in that we hope to develop in the presence of others. This is also not a content-forward organization, but one that invites participation together. TRT helps to rebuild what was lost as the people we are today. Content is included, but the program content (vs. marketing content) will always have a community participation opportunity in order to engage ideas and one another.

  • We recognize that leaving toxic church environments may come with a variety of spiritual trauma. We will not minimize these experiences, and we will operate as though trauma exists in every space we curate. We will also own the times we unintentionally trigger those in the room, and we will apologize and update processes and procedures accordingly.

  • We will not be in the business of policing beliefs of participants, but the organization holds and operates within the historical confession of the Apostles creed. However, we respect those who do not hold those beliefs and will gladly hold space for them and engage in respectful dialogue.
