About this episode

Pastor Scott Savage explores the challenges of building and sustaining community in the context of biblical teachings.

What do you do when you want community but it feels inconvenient, uncomfortable, or costly? Why does something we all desire seem so difficult to build and sustain? In Week 2 of The Table, Pastor Scott Savage explores Acts 2 and the powerful picture of the early church. This message unpacks the tension between our desire for connection and the devotion it actually requires. Through biblical teaching and real life insight, Scott reveals that true community is not built on convenience but on commitment, generosity, and authenticity. You will be challenged to consider what it really means to live in biblical community, why so many people stop at desire instead of devotion, and how your everyday table can become a place where God works in powerful ways. This message speaks to anyone feeling isolated, disconnected, or longing for deeper relationships. Discover how God uses ordinary moments and shared meals to create something extraordinary and eternal. The cost of community is real but the cost of avoiding it is even greater.
