Meals Shape Community

Meals have the power to shape and reshape community. At the table, over a meal, we can have a life-changing experience not because of the food, but because of the company. As a sinful woman crashes a dinner party with Jesus, she embraces Him because He is the hope she has been looking for. As Jesus sees her devotion and love for Him, He forgives her sins and teaches a lesson to all of us: at the table, forgiveness is possible.Community Questions:1. What has this past week been like for you? Have you been able to slow down and focus on Jesus in prayer and worship?2. Who led you to faith in the Lord? What was their method in evangelizing?3. What is your favorite part about a meal with others?  4. Read Luke 7:36-44 in groups. Have the groups come back to the large group and discuss what they read/observed about Jesus, the pharisee, and the woman.  5. End your time together by praying for one another and agreeing to check-in on one another throughout the week.
