In this sermon, Pastor Jared Richard explores the significance of "breaking bread" as one of the four pillars of the early church found in Acts 2:42. He demonstrates how Jesus intentionally used meals throughout His ministry to teach about His kingdom and sacrifice. From dining with tax collectors in Luke 5 to instituting the Lord's Supper in Luke 22, Jesus transformed ordinary tables into gospel opportunities.
The early church continued this practice, using both formal meals (the Lord's Supper) and informal gatherings to remember Christ's sacrifice and demonstrate gospel unity. Their shared meals crossed social, economic, and ethnic boundaries, proclaiming that all believers belong at Christ's table. Pastor Richard challenges us to redeem our tables for gospel purposes by using mealtimes to remember God's provision, deepen our love for one another, and invite unbelievers to experience Christ. As he concludes, "What better way to saturate North Raleigh with the gospel than by saturating it with bread... and giving thanks to the Lord for His physical provision and calling others to see the spiritual provision He has given us in Jesus."
