Author Chris Seay's thought-provoking new book, A Place at the Table, invites you on a journey of self-examination, discipline, and renewed focus on Jesus that will change your life forever.
Chris gives us a challenge: eat and drink like the poor for 40 days and donate the money you save on groceries to a charity or project that serves the poor in concrete ways.
