about us

Matthew’s Table is a church stripped of its formality. At every Sunday gathering we prepare food and all eat freely. During our time together we engage in a simple liturgy that we call a Weekly Rhythm.

Eating

Sharing food has always been central to a shared life of community. We place worship and communion back where it began: as a delight in the middle of the shared table.

Learning

We desire to take on the image of God and to participate in his plan. We seek out knowledge about God to help us to do this. We gather around the Scriptures and learn together, discussing issues that confront our world.

Listening

We believe that God is capable of speaking to us. We do not confine him to any particular medium, but we try to be attentive to his voice, wherever and whenever it speaks. We provide a period for reflection, meditation and listening to the voice of God.

Sending

We are called to live ordinary life – our sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life – with Gospel intentionality. We believe the purpose of the church is derived from the very nature of God which has compelled us to be sent as a missionary people.

We invite you to become an active part of our community of faith by joining the conversation. Join us any Sunday @ 11am. We meet at Java Joe’s located at 1029 West Main Street in Lebanon TN. [map]
