Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. We are in the Gospel of Mark. Visit the website and purchase the Scripture Journal for this study so that you can follow along with us. I am giving a shout-out today to Rock Woods from Roseburg, OR. Thank you for being a monthly partner in Project23 and helping us share the Gospel with millions as we work our way through the entire Bible. Today, we're looking at Mark 2:15-17: And as he reclined at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners were reclining with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, said to his disciples, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” — Mark 2:15-17 Jesus didn't come for the perfect. He came for the broken. While the religious elite judged from a distance, Jesus pulled up a chair—shared a meal with people everyone else wrote off. He didn't dodge messy lives. He walked straight into them. When the Pharisees complained, Jesus shut it down with one bold line: “Those who are well don't need a physician—only the sick do. I didn't come to call the righteous, but sinners.” He wasn't excusing a sinner's sin. He was calling them out of it. But first, he met them where they were—over a table, in real conversation, starting with grace and leading to a challenge. Jesus' table was—and still is—a place of invitation and transformation. And it's wide open for you. Will you come to the table and eat? And if you know Jesus, act like him. Carefully consider with whom you are meeting with and eating with today. Who needs to see Jesus' love through the way you live and love? #graceatthetable, #dailydevotional, #callofsinners ASK THIS: Who in your life feels unwelcome at your table? When have you judged rather than joined someone in their struggle? How can you extend grace before pointing out faults today? What's one small way you can meet someone “where they are”? DO THIS: Invite someone you'd normally avoid to lunch or coffee this week and offer them compassion and direction, not only correction. PRAY THIS: Lord Jesus, thank you for meeting me in my mess and offering to heal before I ever had it together. Give me the courage to pull up a chair for others and love them with your grace. Amen PLAY THIS: Come As You Are.

When Jesus calls Levi and feasts with the outsiders, he declares His mission is to save sinners. Jesus' table fellowship with them is a demonstration of the inclusive heart of His Kingdom. He welcomes sinners, not to affirm sin, but to transform lives. The cross is woven into this as he's heading toward the ultimate sacrifice, he's carrying love for every outcast. Lent reminds us to do likewise: embrace others in love and trust God to work. May we be open to forming genuine connections, humility to repent of biases, and boldness to reflect Jesus' hospitality.

In the ancient world sharing a meal was considered a core element of fellowship. This concept of Table Fellowship has significant impact on Paul's letter to the Corinthians with respect to the problem of attending idol feasts as well as Paul's theology of the Lord's Supper. This special study explores Table Fellowship as it relates to 1 Corinthians 10-11.----------------------------Please follow us on these platforms:Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@JointhesearchTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jointhesearchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jointhesearchtodayFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jointhesearchtoday
God calls all of us to practice hospitality. But we can be easily overwhelmed with what we think that means. Do we have to know how to cook really good meals? What if we don't have a lot of time? What if…?” Join us and find out how easy biblical hospitality can be when you plug into the One who can enable you to do it in a way that honors Him. Practical tips included! Ladies' Night Biblical Womanhood "Table Fellowship — Biblical Hospitality” Tiffany Detweiler April 8, 2024 Draper
What makes the Lord's Supper so special? Of course, there is much we can say to answer that question, but why did Jesus leave us with a meal? What is so significant about the fact that the second sacrament of the church is a meal? When we survey the Bible's examples of meals and look especially at meals in the Gospel of Luke, we learn three truths: Meals involve fellowship; fellowship requires reconciliation; and reconciliation produces fellowship. When we understand that, we can join in with the angel in Revelation 19:9: “Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.”
How important is food to God? Was eating a meal together just a thing people do to stop hunger? Or is there more going on than just consuming calories? On the episode today we will answer those questions and more.
