EPISODE 5: Eric Liddell
Stories are the essential building block of empathy and human connection.
Since the beginning of time, storytelling has been used to connect, engage, inspire, heal and create a brighter future.
We are convinced that it is stories that change our world. We have seen hearts change and opinions soften when real people and real stories are heard.
Beth received a church prize book called "Ten Girls that Changed the World" when she was a child and it is this book that inspired this all-new series from At the Table Podcast by Faversham Salvation Army.
You may know the stories of Christians like Martin Luther King jr, Florence Nightingale and maybe that of the Salvation Army's founders William & Catherine Booth but this series, we are hearing the stories that changed the world from people you may not have heard of.
As we almost reach the end of our latest series, we are looking at a capped rugby player, gold medalist, stadium-builder, teacher and missionary (to name a few of the accolades...); a man called Eric Liddell.
Eric is inspirational - not only for his sporting feats - but also the way he was compassionate, loving, caring and devoted during a dark period in our history. There is also a film which depicts his life which - to our surprise - is a huge popular blockbuster!

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.
