Tables, Seats & Seasons: Knowing When to Welcome, When to Wait, and When to Let Go (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798187211685)

Tables, Seats & Seasons
Knowing When to Welcome, When to Wait, and When to Let Go

Some of life's greatest lessons are learned around a table.

For nearly 30 years in pastoral ministry, Russell Hylton has had a front row seat to the beauty and complexity of relationships. He has celebrated marriages, restored broken families, mentored emerging leaders, comforted grieving hearts, and watched countless people enter and exit the seasons of life. Through it all, one truth has remained constant: God is always arranging the table.

In Tables, Seats & Seasons, Russell invites readers into a life changing conversation about discernment, relationships, leadership, and spiritual maturity. Using the powerful metaphor of the table, he explores why some people are called to stay, why others are only meant to pass through, and why every season requires wisdom to recognize what God is doing.

This book will help you discover:

- How to recognize who belongs at your table and who does not.
- Why every relationship has a purpose and a season.
- How to release people without bitterness or guilt.
- The difference between assignment relationships and covenant relationships.
- Why waiting on God's timing always produces healthier outcomes than forcing your own.
- How seasons of growth often require changes at your table.
- Practical wisdom for leaders, pastors, families, business owners, and anyone navigating relationships.

Filled with biblical insight, pastoral wisdom, personal stories, and practical application, Tables, Seats & Seasons is an honest guide for anyone who has wrestled with disappointment, betrayal, transition, or the difficult decisions that come with leadership and life.

Whether you're welcoming someone new, waiting on God's direction, or finding the courage to let go, this book will remind you that every seat matters... every season has purpose... and God is never absent from the table.

Sometimes the greatest act of faith isn't inviting someone to your table.

Sometimes it's trusting God enough to leave a seat empty until He sends the right person.
