Luke 19:1-10

Listen to Luke 19:1-10
1 Jesus entered Jericho and made his way through the town.
2 There was a man there named Zacchaeus. He was the chief tax collector in the region, and he had become very rich.
3 He tried to get a look at Jesus, but he was too short to see over the crowd.
4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree beside the road, for Jesus was going to pass that way.
5 When Jesus came by, he looked up at Zacchaeus and called him by name. “Zacchaeus!” he said. “Quick, come down! I must be a guest in your home today.”
6 Zacchaeus quickly climbed down and took Jesus to his house in great excitement and joy.
7 But the people were displeased. “He has gone to be the guest of a notorious sinner,” they grumbled.
8 Meanwhile, Zacchaeus stood before the Lord and said, “I will give half my wealth to the poor, Lord, and if I have cheated people on their taxes, I will give them back four times as much!”
9 Jesus responded, “Salvation has come to this home today, for this man has shown himself to be a true son of Abraham.
10 For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.”

Table Ministry
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.
