The inspiration for this series came from the discussion of the ten table scenes of Luke in Hicks' book, Come to the Table. He was in turn inspired by LaVerdiere's Dining in the Kingdom of God. Lesson titles have been adapted from their list and both books have been used as a resource. I also use the multi-author set, Understanding the Bible Commentary, in all my classes. Please contact me with any questions.

Join our fall Bible Study! This semester we’ll be in the Gospel of Luke, studying the passages in which Jesus is at the table – with strangers and friends, followers and enemies, the few and the many. Jesus teaches in these moments and points us toward communion with God and with others.
The class will provide lots of compelling time with Jesus, plus opportunity for discussion with great, welcoming women!
Choose between in-person on Tuesdays at 10:30am Central in downtown Austin, Tx (Zoom also available) or online via Zoom on Wednesdays at 7pm Central.
