“Meals were the main venue for the arrival of God's kingdom,” says Tim Mackie, describing the work of Jesus in the books of Luke and Acts.
In this unique bonus episode, host Verlon Fosner and producer Chris Morton welcome BibleProject’s Tim Mackie (Bible scholar) and Jon Collins (Explainer and Visual Storyteller) to help us understand why Jesus’ ministry focused so much on meals.
BibleProject’s enormously popular animated explainer videos, in-depth podcast, and ever-expanding free library of resources have helped Christians around the world grow in their understanding of Scripture. This episode will help you understand how the Dinner Church movement is a natural outgrowth of Jesus' own ministry approach. You will also gain useful insight into how to better teach the stories of Jesus at your tables.

What is Dinner Church Podcast?
Dinner Churches are starting all over North America. Why? It's not just that they are an effective, affordable, and contextual approach to church planting. They also follow in the footsteps of Jesus and the early church, who made disciples and cultivated community around the table.
In this podcast, you'll be led by J.D. and Heather, two longtime pastors now leading Dinner Churches. You will hear from theologians, historians, and other Dinner Church practitioners.
Any ordinary church can start a Dinner Church. The Dinner Church Podcast will teach you how.
