Have you ever felt like you don’t belong at God’s table?Like your mistakes, your past, or your failures somehow disqualify you from grace?In this episode of Beyond Belief, we explore a beautiful pattern found throughout the Gospels: Jesus was often found around a table. He shared meals with outsiders, sinners, doubters, and broken people — and those moments of connection became places of transformation.Through the stories of Levi, Zacchaeus, and Peter, we discover a powerful truth: Jesus doesn’t wait for us to fix ourselves before He invites us close.Grace comes first.Whether you feel curious like Zacchaeus, ashamed like Peter, or uncertain like Levi, the invitation of Jesus remains the same.There is always room at the table.Pull up a chair.In this episode:• Why meals were central to Jesus’ ministry • The surprising way grace leads to transformation • How Jesus restores people after failure • Why belonging often comes before believingIf this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who might feel spiritually outside.Because the table of Jesus is always bigger than we think.Until next time — may your faith move beyond belief… and into relationship.Listen & ConnectPodcast Website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2561036Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5UYxxzqTBEjnjZdMP1ijBCApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-belief/id1857192043YouTube: https://youtube.com/@harduspretorius?si=qHOmxEcdZaM2Z_hsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61585831259171Send us Fan MailSupport the show
