RLA Sunday Service - 8/16/2026 - Gavin Benjafield

Gavin preaches week three of the "Tables of Transformation" series (the extended table of invitation) using Luke 5 (Levi/Matthew). He argues that Jesus invites people as they are—invitation comes before transformation—and transformed people extend their tables to invite others. Practical application: invite your people to meals, home groups or everyday proximity so outsiders can meet Jesus; evangelism begins by making room.

Angela Benjafield begins a new series, 'Tables of Transformation,' using the story of David and Mephibosheth to illustrate how the king's table models Jesus' invitation. The sermon highlights three transformations available at the king's table—acceptance, restoration (identity and inheritance), and relationship—and challenges listeners to identify and remove barriers that keep them from regularly feasting with Jesus. Practical encouragement focuses on choosing the table daily, receiving grace in brokenness, and relying on Jesus for fresh spiritual nourishment rather than stale or secondhand devotion.
