As humans, we know what it feels like to be full, and what it feels like to be hungry. Over time, we learn what satisfies our bodies and what leaves us wanting for better sustenance. If we're able, we adjust accordingly - like eating a sandwich for lunch instead of cotton candy. But have we applied that same principle to the rest of our lives? Or do we attempt to "fill" ourselves with things that will always leave us empty, hungering for more? Today, we continue our message series, Soul Food: When a Meal with Jesus was More than Food, where we'll unpack what Jesus has to teach us from the time He spent around the table.

If you could invite any 4 people to a dinner party, living or dead, who would you choose? Follow up question: Why them? Maybe you'd choose those particular people because of their fame, a set of qualities you respect, or because they make you feel loved. We tend to view our relationships - or hypothetical guests - in light of what we stand to gain; we'll engage as long as the benefit to us is high enough. Today, we begin our new message series, Soul Food: When a Meal with Jesus was More than Food, where we'll unpack what Jesus has to teach us from the time He spent around the table. We'll start by turning to Luke 5:27-32 to ask the question, “Who would Jesus eat with?” We may be a bit shocked (and humbled) at the ‘kind of people' invited to dine with the Savior of the world. Listen along with us to the first episode of this series, Who Would Jesus Eat With?, and realize that following Jesus means feasting with “sinners.”
Jesus ate with “sinners” because he came to bring salvation to those who were sick with sin. Jesus pursues sinful people and invites us to his table to eat and experience His saving work. Sometimes I think we forget that includes us! Have we truly recognized and received that grace? Or have we taken Jesus for granted - or perhaps rejected His grace altogether? Today, we continue our message series, Soul Food: When a Meal with Jesus was More than Food, where we'll unpack what Jesus has to teach us from the time He spent around the table. As we read on into Luke, we run into a stark contrast between the way two people respond to Jesus' grace - and wonder which represents our own heart. Listen along with us to the next episode of this series, Is Jesus Good Enough to Eat with You?, and realize that our response to Jesus reveals our grasp of His grace.
Multiple times in Luke's Gospel, we read stories of Jesus spending time around the table with friends, strangers--even his opposition. As we continue our sermon series, Soul Food: When a Meal with Jesus was More than Food, we'll see what Jesus models for us when a sinful woman lavishes Jesus with honor in the presence of a Pharisee. Listen as Pastor Scott Crosby teaches us about Jesus' meal described in Luke 7.
