Hey Mama Bears! In this special episode, we’re turning the tables a bit. Instead of pouring out more theology and apologetics for parenting (don’t worry—it’s coming!), we’re pouring into you. We sat down with Kate Henderson and Rebecca Bradford from Gather Moms, a gospel-centered ministry equipping moms to be intentional, supported, and rooted in biblical truth. We talked about everything from the overwhelm of modern motherhood to practical ways the church and family can support mamas in the trenches. Whether you’re knee-deep in diapers or navigating teenage hormones, this episode will encourage your heart, remind you you’re not alone, and give you a vision for how mom-to-mom discipleship can shape families—and the church—for generations to come.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
