Converted into a Party
Eating is one of humanity’s most basic practices, something everyone does, and Jesus transforms these occasions into an encounter with Him. In sharing food and drink with His friends, Jesus was inviting them to share in the grace of God. His mission was revealed in His eating meals with sinners.

A Father's Embrace

Obstacles to Jesus
Christians often emphacize doing things, rather than becoming things. Focusing on outward actions wrongly takes precedence over inward transformation. This mindset becomes an obstacle to Jesus, because we falsely associate salvation and a relationship with Jesus with our own sense of "goodness". In turn, this is communicated to our neighbors, our friends, and the rest of the world by both our actions and words. Thankfully, the Gospel stands in complete opposition to this obstacle and tears down the walls we often build. Join us as we re-learn the gospel of grace, which we've been called to live and share.
