Galatians 6: Gentle Restoration, Personal Theology, and the Gospel of More
In this final episode of the Galatians series, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings explore Paul's closing words in chapter 6—an invitation to live with gentleness, forgiveness, and mutual care. As they reflect on the early church's challenges, Michael and SJ draw parallels to today's world: pandemics, polarization, and the constant pull toward disunity.
At the heart of the conversation is the reminder that we were never meant to walk alone. Whether it's gently restoring a brother or bearing one another's burdens, Paul's charge is clear—live the gospel together. The hosts share personal stories of confrontation, accountability, and how grace multiplies when it's sown in kindness rather than control.
They also dive into the principle of sowing and reaping, using vivid metaphors (like boomerangs) to illustrate how our actions—good or harmful—have lasting impact. Listeners are invited to examine their "personal theology" and notice where they may be relying on a "Christ plus" mindset, instead of resting in Christ alone.
With reflection, prayer, and gratitude, this episode closes the Galatians journey by pointing back to the bigger truth: there is always more freedom, more love, and more grace available in the life God invites us into.

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.
