Table Talk: Practices for a Full Life (January)

Table Talk: How to Read the Bible Without Feeling Intimidated

Practices for a Full Life

For many people, the Bible feels overwhelming — confusing language, unfamiliar context, or the sense that you’re supposed to already “know” how to read it. Others have tried and walked away feeling stuck, bored, or discouraged.

Table Talk is a monthly pop-up gathering designed to create space for honest conversation, gentle teaching, and meaningful connection, whether you’re deeply rooted in faith, just beginning to explore, or not sure what you believe at all.

This first session focuses on how to read the Bible in a way that feels approachable, life-giving, and personal, as an invitation into a larger story.

You won’t be put on the spot.
You don’t need prior knowledge.
You don’t need to bring a Bible (but you’re welcome to).

Together, we’ll explore one simple, practical approach you can use whether you’ve read Scripture for years or never opened it before — an approach that helps you slow down, listen, and engage with God in real life.

What to Expect

• A welcoming, relaxed environment
• Gentle teaching (no lectures, no pressure)
• Honest conversation around the table
• A practical tool you can actually use
• Space for reflection and questions

This is not a church service.
It’s not a Bible study you need to prepare for.
It’s a table and a place to belong. Pull up a chair. There’s room at the table.

Who This Is For

• Anyone curious about faith
• Anyone who has struggled reading the Bible
• Anyone longing for depth but tired of surface-level answers
• Anyone looking for meaningful conversation and community
