The Table | WEEK 5
Our church exists to see zero people unchanged by Jesus. In Luke 14, Jesus paints a beautiful picture of the Kingdom of God by telling the story of a great banquet. His vision for this Kingdom includes a seat for everyone who desires to join (zero lost people), community marked by humility (zero unconnected), a willingness to leave everything else behind (zero gods before God), radical generosity (zero needs among us), and people living into calling (zero unfulfilled callings). Join us in October as we take a seat at this table.

Key Passage: Luke 14:25-33 New International Version (NIV)
The Cost of Being a Disciple
25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple. 27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.
28 “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it? 29 For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule you, 30 saying, ‘This person began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
31 “Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? 32 If he is not able, he will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace. 33 In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples.
