Welcome to The TABLE.
As a community splitting our time evenly between our “Gathered” and “Scattered” expressions, this resource page is updated on a bi-weekly basis with scripture study notes for our OUTPOST-based “Table” Sundays (2nd and 4th Sundays every month). This same text will then be the focus of our teaching and corporate worship on the “Gathering” Sunday (1st and 3rd Sundays every month) which follows.
We also provide a link whereby anyone may join our “VIRTUAL” TABLE outpost (on “Table” Sundays) via ZOOM at 10:00am each 2nd and 4th Sunday, should they be unable to join us in person on any given week.
For our ZOOM study group, we invite folks to download the study notes (link below) and dig in for some personal study time beforehand: beginning around 9:30am, or whenever otherwise convenient. At 10:00am, we fire up the ZOOM meeting and come together for a group conversation about our observations, interpretations and applications from the text. We close our time together in prayer.

Beginning in June 2024, we’ll be taking our next year or so together in study to journey through the Gospel of John.
As followers of Jesus - knowing and trusting Him as our source, sustainer, salvation and eternal hope, and apprenticing to Him as he embodies for us the way unto the life that truly IS life - it is fitting and vital that we regularly encounter Jesus, in the intimacy of the accounts of His life and ministry. He is so very GOOD, and beautiful, compelling, profoundly brilliant, perfectly loving and perfectly righteous; He is simply unlike any other person who has ever walked upon the face of the earth, and worthy of our unending fascination. Worthy, in fact, of our worship. Worthy, of our lives!
As the Apostle John shares with us his record of the life and teaching and Gospel of Jesus, he himself tells us his motivation for doing so:
“… these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” (John 20:31)
May this become daily and increasingly true for us, as we walk this road with John, and with Jesus, over the months ahead. May we together come to believe - believe ever and all the more fully, joyfully, and wholeheartedly - in this one we call Savior and Lord as we follow him into life, abundant and eternal.
