Summary
I had the opportunity to hear Sarah Harmeyer speak at an event in Dallas years ago, and her words have literally stayed with me to this day.
Long story short—after a pastor encouraged Sarah to be who God created her to be, she left a successful business career in pursuit of gathering people. It started by her sweet dad building her an outdoor table to host her neighbors, and thousands of people later, she has a ministry and business called Neighbor’s Table.
Sarah and her father hand-deliver their outdoor tables all over the country, allowing countless people to do life elbow to elbow just as Jesus did in his earthly ministry. Sarah encourages us to let go of perfectionism and keep it simple, opening up opportunities for meaningful conversation with a place for everyone at our table.
As we begin a new school year, it’s a perfect time to commit to being people gatherers in our neighborhoods and communities. Sarah says it this way, “I’m on a love mission. I just believe ordinary people, like me, can be called to love extraordinarily around the table. Why? Because we were made to do this.”

| 0:55.2 | confession to make as we kick this off. Don't get too excited. It's not that great of a confession. |
| 1:00.1 | But oftentimes in the past and still sometimes today, I feel like I host a lot, invite a lot of |
| 1:05.9 | people over, have people in and out of our house and very rarely do, I feel like it's reciprocated. And so wondering what |
| 1:13.5 | that was about, I used to think like, is it my kids? Are they crazy? Is it me? Am I too much? What's going on? |
| 1:19.4 | But the more I've talked to people who host a lot, it's kind of a general feeling that people feel |
| 1:23.9 | that if you host a lot, you feel like you're not invited back a lot. And I think there's a lot of |
| 1:27.7 | reasons for that. And that's why I'm so excited to Sarah Harmeyers with us today. I heard her speak |
| 1:32.5 | several years ago. And she speaks into people gathering. Those of us who have been kind of created, |
| 1:38.1 | woven into our being to gather people. And what a ministry that is and how what she was called to do what she thought was |
