I Am With You At The Table | I Am | Matt Summers and Phil EuBank

Welcome to a very special edition of the Menlo Midweek Podcast! This week, we reach a beautiful and intimate turning point in our series, "I AM: The God Who Gets Close." Taking inspiration from Luke 22:14-30, Phil and Matt move the conversation from the mountain-tops and caves directly to the dinner table. In a uniquely cinematic weekend message featuring four chairs—each representing a different perspective at the Last Supper—we explore how Jesus chooses to be with us in our moments of greatest transition, tension, and even betrayal. 📍 In This Episode: The Table Setting: We discuss the "four chairs" on stage and who they represent in the story of the Last Supper. Beyond the Ritual: A deeper look at how the Passover meal was transformed into a promise of God’s permanent presence. The Table Tensions: From the "greatest among us" argument to the heartbreak of Judas, we talk about how Jesus handles the messiness of the people sitting right in front of Him. The God Who Sits With Us: How the "I AM" doesn't just watch us from a distance but pulls up a chair to our real-life situations. 💬 Discussion Question: If you were sitting at that table in Luke 22, which "chair" would you most likely be in today? The one seeking status, the one full of questions, or the one simply resting in His presence? Next Steps Looking to take your faith journey deeper?
