Luke 19:1-10

Listen to Luke 19:1-10

1 Jesus went on into Jericho and was passing through.

2 There was a chief tax collector there named Zacchaeus, who was rich.

3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he was a little man and could not see Jesus because of the crowd.

4 So he ran ahead of the crowd and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus, who was going to pass that way.

5 When Jesus came to that place, he looked up and said to Zacchaeus, "Hurry down, Zacchaeus, because I must stay in your house today."

6 Zacchaeus hurried down and welcomed him with great joy.

7 All the people who saw it started grumbling, "This man has gone as a guest to the home of a sinner!"

8 Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, "Listen, sir! I will give half my belongings to the poor, and if I have cheated anyone, I will pay back four times as much."

9 Jesus said to him, "Salvation has come to this house today, for this man, also, is a descendant of Abraham.

10 The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." ¹

Table Ministry

Bob Russell, Mike Breaux, Rick Atchley, Ben Cachiaras, Aaron Brockett, and Gene Appel

In this message, Ben Cachiaras, Lead Pastor of Mountain Christian Church in Joppa, Maryland, explores how something as simple as sharing a meal can become a powerful opportunity for ministry and authentic connection.Throughout the Gospels, Jesus used the table to welcome people, especially those who felt forgotten, rejected, or far from God. From dining with tax collectors and sinners to describing the Kingdom of God as a great banquet feast, Jesus showed that everyone has a place at His table.This message encourages us to be intentional with our meals, inviting others in and creating space for meaningful relationships. Listen in to hear how every table can become a place of ministry, and every meal can become a mission.

A Story of Two Men, Part 1

Tim Kelley

We need help changing the way we think about God, ourselves and others. We have to untangle our often life-long religious concepts and images of God - produced from a fallen human heart - and the only way to do that is to replace these erroneous concepts with truth. Whatever you have done, no matter how bad we may deem it to be, Salvation has come to you through Jesus Christ.
