Sermon: Potluck | Week 1: Whose Table Is It? // Brent Levy

DateOctober 6, 2024SynopsisIn this sermon, we launch the series Potluck: Finding Hope in What We Bring to the Table by asking, "Whose table is it?" and examining Acts 2:42-47 to understand how the early church's table fellowship reflects Jesus' ministry and offers a model for our lives today. We explore Robert Farrar Capon's meditative approach to cooking an onion as a metaphor for slowing down and encountering the divine in everyday acts, challenging listeners to resist the cultural trend of disappearing gathering spaces. This message will resonate with those feeling disconnected or rushed in modern life, offering practical ways to create meaningful community and find hope through intentional table fellowship, reminding us that Jesus often did his best work around tables.ReferencesScripture: Acts 2:42–47About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.
