What does it really mean to live a life of Christian service?
In this first episode of Let’s Talk: Faith in a Modern World, we explore Jesus' radical call to love one another—not just in word, but in action. From washing feet to serving widows and orphans, we unpack what Scripture teaches about true service (John 13:1–17, 1 Corinthians 13:3, James 1:27).
We get real about the difference between volunteering and serving, tithing and loving, and why so many believers struggle to take that first step. What counts as service? How much is enough? Is fear holding you back?
We’ll also ask:
– Why do so many Christians avoid serving the poor and helpless?
– Is outreach the same as service?
– What role does government play in meeting needs—and what’s the Church’s role?
– And how on earth do we love and serve our enemies?
This is a conversation for every believer who’s been born again into a new life—and wonders what that life is really supposed to look like.

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.
