THE TABLE | Week 2
Our church exists to see zero people unchanged by Jesus. In Luke 14, Jesus paints a beautiful picture of the Kingdom of God by telling the story of a great banquet. His vision for this Kingdom includes a seat for everyone who desires to join (zero lost people), community marked by humility (zero unconnected), a willingness to leave everything else behind (zero gods before God), radical generosity (zero needs among us), and people living into calling (zero unfulfilled callings). Join us in October as we take a seat at this table.

Key Passage Luke 14:9-14 New Living Translation)
9 The host will come and say, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then you will be embarrassed, and you will have to take whatever seat is left at the foot of the table!
10 “Instead, take the lowest place at the foot of the table. Then when your host sees you, he will come and say, ‘Friend, we have a better place for you!’ Then you will be honored in front of all the other guests. 11 For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
12 Then he turned to his host. “When you put on a luncheon or a banquet,” he said, “don’t invite your friends, brothers, relatives, and rich neighbors. For they will invite you back, and that will be your only reward. 13 Instead, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. 14 Then at the resurrection of the righteous, God will reward you for inviting those who could not repay you.”
