One of the greatest ailments of modern society is a lack of connectedness, authentic community, and a shortage of opportunities to seek reconciliation with those different from ourselves.

What if there was a way to do all of this without compromising our convictions to Christ and the gospel? This is the very topic of Tim Chester's book, A Meal With Jesus". Chester explores the Bible's repeated use of food and hospitality in order to explain Jesus' desire to reveal to sinners and strangers the deeper spiritual realities that shared meals with Christ point to. The insights in these meals also encourage us as Christians to makes the sharing of meals an integral part of our fellowship with others, so as to regularly reenact and reflect upon the grace that Christ so freely gave to us.   

This Summer, as our regular Life Groups go on a break, we gather as one church-wide Life Group to engage with Tim Chester's book, A Meal With Jesus. Through it, we hope to see the immensity of God's love and believe the gospel deep down in our personal lives and in our church.
