3 (Reset). Don’t Let the Bastards Get You Down

As I’ve explained at the Greatheart’s Table Patreon and Substack pages, both of which are linked below, I am for a few episodes re-recording and reposting the earliest content from the early months of Greatheart’s Table’s existence. When I released this one to the...

2 (Reset). Running a Church

For a short time I am re-recording and re-releasing the earliest content of Greatheart’s Table. For an explanation of ‘why’ you can read the May Third Monday post at the Greatheart’s Table Substack or Patreon page. The links are below. As I reread this episode on the...

77. Is ‘Fun’ a Ministry Word?

If you’ve been listening, you will notice a different audio quality in this episode. I’m sorry about that! It was unavoidable, but should be fixed by the next release. As GHT is published on the first, second, and fourth Mondays, there will be no audio produced next...

76. Trust the Pie

Those of you who are new to Greatheart’s Table might benefit from listening to February’s post #67, “Mr. Greatheart and This Metaphorical Table,” to orient yourselves to what we’re doing here and why. Also if you’d like to support this work, you can do so on my...

75. Jesus Loves Me, This I Forget

72. When Preaching Is Scary

Hi. Thanks for dropping by Greatheart’s Table. There is a LOT going on with Greatheart’s Table which cannot be crammed into the few seconds I have here. To get the full scoop, head over to the Patreon page and read the recent Third-Monday post. There you will hear...

71. To Be the Fool

Welcome to Greatheart’s Table. My name is Randy Greenwald, and I’m a fool. Or at least I hope I am. And if that seems to be a weird aspiration, I hope you listen to this episode, with it’s nod to one William Shakespeare. I hope you find wisdom in the consideration of...

70. A Modest (Dare We Say ‘Winsome’?) Proposal

Sometimes I suppose I come across as if I’m intending to lay down the final word on some subject. That’s not meant to be the case. Well, I guess sometimes that’ what I’m thinking. But really, in general, my comments are meant to provoke thought. I welcome pushback or...
