Marcus hosts the dinner table where half of these essays were argued out loud before they were written down. He writes on hospitality, scripture, and the church rightly ordered. (Placeholder bio — sample author.)
The closing essay of the collection: what the gathered church looks like when it stops being a sales floor and returns to its actual work — receiving, forming, feeding, and keeping the people its members bring home.

A walking tour of how the gospel actually moved in Acts and the epistles: person to person, house to house, with the gathered church as the destination rather than the vehicle.
