Welcome to Long Table Books, a premier destination for curated books and church supplies tailored to the vibrant community of progressive mainline churches. At Long Table Books, we identify top resources to serve the needs of the church and the communities they serve. Our mission is to provide a curated selection of books and resources that inspire, inform, and contribute to the enlivening of faith within progressive mainline congregations.
Our Story
Long Table Books was born out of a deep commitment to supporting progressive mainline churches' intellectual and spiritual growth. We understand that the most substantial faith communities thrive on diversity, inclusivity, and thoughtful engagement with the complexities of faith. As avid readers and active participants in progressive Christian communities, our founder envisioned a platform that would not only offer a wide range of literature but also serve as a hub for church supplies that align with the values of inclusiveness and social justice.
Our Vision
At the core of our vision is a commitment to fostering a space where individuals and congregations can explore, question, and grow together. We envision Long Table Books as more than just an online store; it is a community resource where theological curiosity meets the practical needs of worship. Whether you're a pastor seeking thought-provoking sermons, a layperson looking for accessible theology, or a church leader needing supplies that reflect your commitment to your community, you'll find it here.
Our Values
- Inclusivity: We celebrate diversity in theological thought, worship styles, and perspectives. Our collection reflects the rich tapestry of beliefs within progressive mainline churches.
- Social Justice: Our commitment to social justice is woven into the fabric of Long Table Books. We seek out top resources written by authors and products designed to engage with racial justice, LGBTQ+ inclusion, environmental stewardship, and economic equality.
- Educational Empowerment: Knowledge is a cornerstone of spiritual growth. We believe in providing resources that challenge, inspire, and encourage lifelong faith formation within faith communities.
