Even in the most robust churches, leaders can find themselves disheartened, feeling like their efforts to share the Gospel aren’t making a real impact. The excitement and connection they long to see in their congregations just aren’t there.
But what if the answer is as simple as gathering people around a table? In this episode, we talk with David Bennett, a coach for pastors who are ready to try something different. David shares how the simple act of sharing a meal can transform not only churches but entire neighborhoods. Learn how Dinner Churches are helping leaders bring their communities together, sparking genuine conversations and deeper connections.
David is passionate about helping churches engage their communities in a fresh, meaningful way. As the leader of Mission 330 and Mission Converge, he works to equip pastors to build genuine relationships in a post-Christian world. Serving as a U.S. missionary with the Assemblies of God, David focuses on the power of good neighboring and the transformative impact of “table theology” on local ministries.
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.
