The Table Boston - Weekly Sermon

This week, Griffin Towle shares a message from Luke 9:57–10:20 titled "Follow, Send, Follow." Drawing from Jesus' sending of the 72, Griffin unpacks what it truly means to follow Jesus — and what happens when we do.Walking through Jesus' challenging exchanges with would-be followers, the commissioning of the 72, and their joyful return, this message confronts the assumptions many of us hold about who is qualified for mission. Griffin makes clear that evangelism is not reserved for the spiritually elite or those in vocational ministry — it is a command and a lifestyle for every follower of Jesus who has given him their wholehearted yes.Griffin anchors the sermon in a simple but powerful cycle: follow, send, follow. We follow Jesus by surrendering our will to His rule and reign. He then sends us — as lambs, not lions — into the harvest. And as we go in obedience, He follows us, working through us to demonstrate and declare that the Kingdom of God has come near.Ultimately, this sermon is an invitation to examine where we've been saying "Lord, let me first..." and to trade our conditions for a full yes. As we abide in Jesus and align our will with His, we become conduits of His Kingdom — sent into our neighborhoods, workplaces, and relationships to proclaim and demonstrate the life that is available to all who follow the King.

This week, Griffin Towle continues our Sermon on the Mount series with a message from Luke.

This week, Ryan Murphy continues our Sermon on the Mount series with a message from Matthew 6:1–34 titled “Kingdom Generosity.” Exploring Jesus' teaching on giving, treasure, and trust, Ryan invites us to rethink our relationship with money in light of the Kingdom of God.Walking through Jesus' words about secret generosity, storing up treasure in heaven, and God's care for the birds of the air and the lilies of the field, this message challenges the anxiety, scarcity, and cultural scripts that often shape how we think about finances. Instead of fear or self-reliance, Jesus calls us to radical trust in a Father who already knows what we need.Ryan highlights two core truths that anchor Kingdom finances: the Father knows our needs before we ask, and generosity is the pathway to blessing in the Kingdom of God. Through Scripture, personal stories, and historical examples of faith-filled provision, we're reminded that following Jesus means surrendering even our finances to His leadership.Ultimately, this sermon is an invitation to renew our minds—leaving behind inherited fears, cultural pressures, and scarcity thinking, and stepping into a life of faith, generosity, and trust. As we seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, we discover a Father who delights to provide, guide, and bless His people.

This week, Bekah Sankey brings us back to the Sermon on the Mount, teaching from Matthew 5:17–37; 7:15–23, with reflections from Romans 7–8, Galatians 5, Hebrews 10, and Jeremiah 31. Centered on what she calls Kingdom Words, this message explores how the way we speak reveals who we belong to—and whether we truly know the One we name.Beginning with Jesus' bold declaration, “You have heard it said… but I say to you,” Bekah unpacks how Christ establishes Himself as the fulfillment of the Law—not abolishing it, but completing it. From that foundation, she traces what this means for our speech. If Jesus is the living Word and the Law fulfilled, then kingdom people must speak in ways that reflect His authority, integrity, and Spirit.Walking through Jesus' teaching on oaths (Matthew 5:33–37), she calls us back to simple, honest speech: let your “yes” be yes. In a culture saturated with exaggeration, spin, and self-protection, clarity and truthfulness become radical acts of discipleship. Moving into Matthew 7, she challenges us to “check the fruit”—not measuring spiritual vitality by visible gifts or dramatic moments, but by the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5).Finally, in one of Jesus' sobering warnings—“I never knew you” (Matthew 7:23)—we are reminded that powerful words and spiritual works mean nothing apart from intimacy with Him. Prophecy, miracles, and ministry cannot replace knowing Jesus. Kingdom speech flows from relationship, not performance.This message is both invitation and warning: tell the truth, check the fruit, and know Him. As we yield to the Holy Spirit—the One who writes the law on our hearts—we become people whose words create life, whose speech multiplies the kingdom, and whose lives bear lasting fruit.

This week, we welcome Bishop Drew Williams from All Saints Church Amesbury, preaching from Isaiah 45:1–5, alongside reflections from Hosea 11, Luke 1:78–79, Romans 7, Isaiah 54:2–4, and the wider story of redemption .Centering on God's promise to give “treasures of darkness” (Isaiah 45), Bishop Drew unpacks the historical moment of Israel's exile and Cyrus' unlikely role in their restoration—revealing how God brings hidden treasure out of places of defeat. But this isn't just ancient history. It's a deeply personal promise. The same God who broke open Babylon's vaults now enters the hidden, shame-filled vaults of our own hearts.With pastoral warmth and theological depth, Bishop Drew explores how trauma, sin, and shame drive us into secrecy—and how Jesus meets us there, not with wrath, but with compassion. Drawing from Hosea's declaration that God's “compassion grows warm and tender,” and Luke's image of the “Dayspring from on high,” we are reminded that grace is not a substance to be rationed—it is a Person who abounds toward us.This message is a call to step out of hiding. The darkness we fear may actually be the place where Jesus reveals His mercy most clearly. What feels like failure can become treasure. What feels like shame can become testimony. And what feels like the end may, in Christ, be the ignition of calling and destiny.In the power of the cross, Bishop Drew invites us to trust the slow, gentle work of healing—piece by piece—and to move forward with courage. Because in Jesus, we are not disgraced, not abandoned, and not disqualified. We are called by name.

This week, Katia Adams shares a message with The Table Global Churches.

This week, Jeshua Glanzmann continues our journey through the Sermon on the Mount, teaching from Matthew 5:21–26, 38–48; Matthew 7:1–6, 12; Matthew 6:14–15; and Matthew 18:21–35  . Walking through some of Jesus' most challenging words, this message confronts the quiet corrosion of offense and invites us into a radically different way of relating.Beginning with Jesus' teaching on anger and reconciliation (Matthew 5:21–26), Jeshua explores how the Kingdom addresses the heart before the behavior. From there, Jesus' commands to turn the other cheek and love our enemies (Matthew 5:38–48) reshape how we approach conflict—not with retaliation, but with restraint and compassion. Moving into Matthew 7, we're challenged to examine our own hearts before judging others, and to live out the Golden Rule as the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets.Drawing from Jesus' words on forgiveness (Matthew 6:14–15) and the parable of the unforgiving servant (Matthew 18:21–35), this sermon ultimately points us to the heart of the gospel: none of us meets the standard—yet Jesus does. Because we've received immeasurable mercy, we are empowered to extend forgiveness. Forgiveness doesn't excuse harm or erase boundaries, but it frees us from living in the realm of accusation and punishment.This message is an invitation to step fully into the grace we've been given—becoming people who love deeply, seek peace boldly, and trust God to work miracles in even the most broken relationships.

This week, Ryan Murphy continues our Sermon on the Mount series by teaching from Matthew 5:6 and Matthew 6:5–13. Centered on Jesus' words, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,” this message explores prayer as an invitation into deeper intimacy with God—not a religious obligation, but a response to holy hunger. Drawing from the Beatitudes and Jesus' teaching on prayer (including the Lord's Prayer), we're reminded that life in the Kingdom is rooted in continual communion with a Father who is near, attentive, and eager to fill those who seek Him.

This week, Ryan Murphy continues our vision series.Quick note: From 6:30-11:46 the audio was experiencing issues during recording, and because of that, some important parts of the message are fuzzy or hard to hear because of the processing. The reason it is left in is because we feel that section is something that the Holy Spirit wanted to speak to not just those in person, but also to those online. Because we feel it is important, there is an accurately uploaded transcript that has what has been said in full! Many apologies for the audio difficulties!
