Join us for an enlightening episode where we explore "The Tables of Jesus," delving into how tables, a common element in our daily lives, also played a significant role in Jesus' ministry. In this sermon, we focus on the "First Table," the setting of a remarkable event from the gospel of John where Jesus performs his first recorded miracle at the wedding in Cana—transforming water into wine.

Through storytelling that connects with everyday family dynamics and cultural traditions, learn about the deep-rooted significance of tables in our spiritual and community life, from dinner tables where families bond and teach important life lessons, to the biblical accounts where Jesus used tables as scenes of teaching, fellowship, and transformation.

Our discussion will cover a wide array of themes:
- The concept of tables as a space for gathering, learning, and encountering God.
- Insights into the cultural and spiritual symbolism behind Jesus' first miracle.
- A deeper look at how Christ’s actions at the wedding in Cana are relevant to modern Christian life, emphasizing trust, obedience, and the miraculous power of Jesus.
- A thought-provoking segment on responsible lifestyle choices regarding alcohol consumption, supported by personal anecdotes and scripture.
- Practical lessons we can draw from Jesus' use of the "First Table" for handling problems and transforming lives through faith.

The episode also confronts difficult questions about community and personal practices, encouraging a thoughtful reflection on how we embody our values in everyday actions.
