The hallmark of the Early Church was the Lord's Supper—a full feast where believers practiced reconciled relationships across class and creed, enacted justice for the the least among them, and became a catalyst for cultivating a flourishing kingdom culture.
Our feasts are a rich place to:
* enjoy the Lord & one another,
* share our work of any medium,
* write and share songs,
* develop future plans & church/community strategy,
* Share & Meet Needs,
* and remember God's Goodness to all and all his benefits to his people.

FAQ's
How Will This Shindig Go?
In Luke 22, there are two cups. The first cup hailed Jesus as King over all. The bread was broken. Everyone ate in general revelation of God’s goodness and love toward all. The second cup was raised in special revelation of Christ’s revealed kingdom, as He called all to repentance to Christ alone; followed by a time of confession, assurance, prayer, salvation, and creative acts that build kingdom culture. Each feast includes a Supper and Symposium, marked by two cups, and follows historic, theological, and biblical rhythms: Gathering, Word, Response, and Sending.
How is the Supper for Believers and Non-Believers?
Jesus began the meal by raising the general first cup and breaking bread, reflecting surrounding cultural feasts and inviting in all—the “least of these.” It was a meal of justice. His grace allows all to share in good gifts (even Judas was present).
But at the second cup, Jesus revealed the distinction: His broken body and shed blood are specifically for those who confess Him as Lord and receive eternal life. So we invite all to eat with us—not apart from us—but within the meal we also make a clear call to repent and enter the family of God.

What is the Goal of the Meal?
We live in a FAKEbook age, where we tend to present what we want others to see, divide over disconnected viewpoints, and only talk about ourselves. We must relearn the art of conversation—asking questions, praying together, and counseling one another out of deep love and relationship. Our meals cultivate these connections, where spontaneous prayer, generosity, family counsel, wisdom, and vibrant making naturally flow.
J.A.R.G.O.N & P.R.I.M.E.
Jesus largely taught through questions and table conversation. At our table, we are very intentional about introducing good topics/mixer/fun to P.R.I.M.E. hearts for prayer, relationship, and good questions:
Verbal Villains can introduce J.A.R.G.O.N that complicate and hinder conversation and relationships. We spend meal times actively becoming aware our struggles together so we can better engage the world with Jesus:
- P – Pain / Pride (Ga 6:2)-everyone has a pain or struggle to share.
- R – Reasons for Rejoicing (Rm 12:15)- everyone has things we can be thankful for together.
- I – Inner Why Behind the Lie (Jn 8:32)- everyone has inner things driving them that aren't always true.
- M – Meaningful Moment (Lk 24:17–19)- everyone has meaningful things to share.
- E – Edifying (Thoughtful) Truth (Pv 18:13)- everyone can teach us something
Verbal Villains can introduce J.A.R.G.O.N that complicate and hinder conversation and relationships. We spend meal times actively becoming aware our struggles together so we can better engage the world with Jesus:
- J.oker: deflects seriousness with humor (Ep 5:4)
- A.ttention Seeker: overtalks and steals focus OR disappears and moves toward own needs (Ecc 5:3, Hb 10:24–25)
- R.ogue Robber: interrupts and changes topics (Pv 18:2)
- G.eneral: controls out of fear (Pv 25:28)
- O.fficer: fixes and commands others to avoid self-reflection on their own sin (Rm 2:1)
- N.arrator: argues, accuses, or judges (Mt 7:1–5)
What is a C.R.O.S.S. Team & How Does That Look?
Each community has a team of at least five, each training at least five more for multiplication. Every person owns a clear role:
C – Community: simple role that helps us love one another intentionally.
R – Rhythms: pastor-led role aligning church and family rhythms with the Gospel.
O – Organization: a role to structure us for mission and flourishing.
S – Scripture: a role to grow us in God’s Word where needed most.
S – Shared Mission: a deacon-led role guiding meals and mission to believers and nonbelievers
How Do We Handle Kids?
Each community feast will handle children differently, but our value is clear: children belong at the table, just like in your home. We want to hear them, engage them, and help them feel seen, known, and formed by older brothers and sisters in Christ. We welcome children as Jesus and Paul did—speaking to the whole family together. And when little ones are distracting, it becomes an opportunity to serve one another through shared care, love, and guidance.
How Do I Serve With Kids?
C.R.O.S.S. teams are made up of at least five members, along with those they are apprenticing and raising disciples for future communities. Everyone takes a piece of the pie—allowing families to serve together in focused ways without burnout, because everyone shares the load.
Symposium Sounds Fancy!
Jesus and Paul structured their gatherings around supper and symposium (Luke 22; 1 Cor. 10–14). The symposium was simply a time for discussion, testimony, culture-making, planning, mission strategy, learning from the Word, and deep prayer. Each feast follows this rhythm, while based on the moment, a community Pastor will choose to structure the aim more toward the head (precepts), heart (people), or hands (planning).

How Our Feasts Train Pastors & Deacons
We value a plurality of pastors in unity, reflecting our Triune God. We also believe deacons originated not as an office but literally as "table servants"—serving practical needs. Both pastors and deacons serve as part of the C.R.O.S.S. team—pastors overseeing, deacons helping orchestrate meals and care for the neighborhood. These are not titles, but roles—recognized, assessed, appointed, and affirmed by the community through faithful witness to their consistent actions.
