The Table Church DC

On Palm Sunday, Pastor Anthony leads us in our final teaching from Into the Wilderness by taking a look at The Transfiguration and the Cross, and how The Transfiguration reveals God's intention for every human being. 

Pastor Anthony continues teaching us about the transfiguration in Matthew 17:1-8.

In his first sermon at The Table Church, Pastor Anthony starts the second part of our Into the Wilderness series focused on the transfiguration in Matthew 17:1-8.

In the third week of our into the Wilderness series, Pastor Richard discusses the temptation of ambition in Matthew 4:8-11.  

Pastor Angela discusses affirmation as one of the main temptations Jesus faces in Matthew 4:5-7 during the second week of our Into the Wilderness series during the Lenten season.

Bekki Fahrer begins our news series, Into the Wilderness, as we begin the Lenten season and learn of Jesus' time in the wilderness. In Matthew 4:1-4, the devil tempts Jesus by targeting his appetite. Appetite is a holy and God-given function, but we must be weary of it's twisted, dark side as well.

Pastor Jessica finishes our First Things First series by discussing what it takes to put God first in our lives with intentionality and consistency. We do this by creating a plan, having support, and following through with trust in God's ways over the world's ways.

Pastor Jessica walks us through the challenges presented to us in scripture when it comes to seeking God first with all we have. From tithing to sacrificial giving, we cover what scripture has to say about generosity and why God made us to be generous people.

Pastor Jessica begins our new series, First Things First, where we discuss how to seek God first with all we’ve been entrusted, while navigating the demands of life and this hectic world we live in. This week we begin by identifying the competition. We all want to honor God and put him first in our lives, but something is stopping us. What is it? Before we can successfully put God first, we have t...

Pastor Raimon continues our Prepare the Way series by discussing the life of John The Baptist. We learn about both the prophetic birth and life of the one who would prepare the way for Jesus the Messiah. We travel through John's message of baptismal and repentance and learn of how John has the privilege of baptizing Jesus. We are challenged to a year of committed time towards building our relation...

Pastor Richard continues our Prepare the Way series by discussing Jesus' time at the temple as a boy. We learn that Jesus was not afraid to ask questions but embraced them, and spent time listening, learning, and seeking to understand as he gained wisdom that would lead to his ministry on earth. We're called to do the same: listen, learn, ask questions, and repeat.  

Pastor Jessica opens up our new series Prepare the Way: Jesus' Early Years where we will explore the period of scripture between Jesus’ birth and the start of his ministry on earth. As we explore the beginning of Jesus’ life on earth and the preparations for his ministry, we will learn how to prepare ourselves as well, for a new year of ministry, of living in faith, and living into our calling as...

Pastor Jessica delivers our Christmas Eve message by diving into the story of Mary. By saying Yes! to the unconventional, to God's timing, and to God's love, we prepare ourselves to be changed by the tiny baby born into our world many years ago, Emmanuel, God With Us. 

Bekki Fahrer talks about how Elizabeth’s story shows us that God is with us in celebration as well as we remember God’s love and it causes us to celebrate. Having a child during Elizabeth’s old age had to have been a painful and scary process. Despite this, Elizabeth chooses joy in knowing God had heard her prayers for a son, and chosen her and Zechariah to give birth to John, Jesus’ cousin, who w...

Most of us make plans for how we want our personal and professional lives to go. But when life doesn’t go according to plan, we can be thrown into confusion, frustration, and we often feel far from God. Joe Riffe discusses how God is with us in these confusing seasons of life.

Pastor Angela discusses how throughout Scripture God uses the lowly, the poor, the unlikely, the vulnerable, and the foreigner to do his good work. While society may shut these voices down, it’s God who takes the time to appear to them, comfort them, give them purpose, and call them loved.

Pastor Raimon begins our series, Emmanuel: God With Us, by diving in to Zechariah's story and how God is with us even in our disbelief and doubts. For even in our disbelief, we can have hope in the future God has planned for us. 

Bekki Fahrer discusses how the process of rebuilding our faith isn't complete until the community we are a part of reclaims God's promises. Rebuilding can't happen alone, but within authentic community. 

Pastor Angela talks about the ability to see the temple when there are ruins surrounding us.

Pastor Jessica discusses the reality of opposition from the enemy. When we're rebuilding around God's promises, there is always risk of the enemy opposing the good work we're doing. By discussing the opposition the Jews faced in Ezra 4, we learn how to be prepared for opposition in our daily lives.

Pastor Richard discusses Ezra 3 and how the process of rebuilding must start at the altar. In order to reclaim God’s promises over our lives, we must first commit to worship and seeking relationship with God above all else.

Pastor Jessica kicks off our series on Ezra and the promises from God in Scripture for when people are in the process of rebuilding. She dives into the book of Ezra, where the Jewish people reclaimed God's promises for their life as he brought them out of exile and back into a faith-filled temple and faith-filled community. 

Pastor Angela finishes up our series on Silent Sermons by discussing the narrative of shame that we preach to ourselves. By choosing to expose our shame, replace it with truth, and repeat, we can walk confidently in our God-given identity of God's unconditional love. 

Bekki Fahrer shares how the silent sermon of low self-worth can hold us captive and be reinforced by society, the church, and well-meaning individuals. By dissecting the Greek and Hebrew narratives around identity in scripture, she directs us to understand the worth and belovedness we have in Christ.  

Pastor Jessica discussed the silent sermon of fear and how we can overcome this dominant voice in our life by identifying the source, surrounding ourselves with biblical truths, and redirecting our attention toward worship.
