This week on Table Talk, Pastors Nick Shepherd and Bobbi Lassiter follow up on Pastor Kyle’s sermon series, "More Than a Feeling," by exploring the intersection of faith and love in 1 John 3. They argue that belief and love are inseparable, and that faith is not merely intellectual information but an intimate, lived experience rooted in the recognition of God’s abiding love for us.
The conversation also highlights the importance of spiritual discernment in navigating the many "voices" that vie for our attention. Using an analogy of students trying to navigate a room while being shouted at by a crowd, they illustrate how difficult it is to hear God’s voice amidst the noise of the world. The hosts suggest that hearing and trusting God’s voice requires intentional proximity and relationship, much like being able to recognize the voice of a close family member in a lineup of strangers.
This week on Table Talk, Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd launch a new series centered on the book of 1 John. They begin by exploring the theme of "walking in the light" and the foundational command of love, noting that while it is rooted in Old Testament law, it is made new through the life and teaching of Jesus. The hosts discuss the spiritual necessity of engaging with the entire Bible, arguing that historical church rhythms help believers avoid the "echo chambers" of personal preference and cultural trends.
This week on Table Talk, Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd dive into the final episode of their Advent series by addressing why some churches observe Advent while others do not. Tracing the season’s roots back to the 4th-century Council of Saragossa, the hosts explain how Advent originated as a season of penitence and preparation similar to Lent, designed to anchor believers in the full story of Christ's birth and return.
The conversation then shifts to the modern challenge of people-pleasing within the church. The pastors discuss the tension between honoring meaningful traditions and catering to personal preferences, warning that avoiding historical rhythms can distract from the church's true mission. They also draw a parallel between rejecting church liturgy and the way social media algorithms create echo chambers, arguing that the liturgical calendar is essential for forcing Christians to engage with the whole Bible rather than just the parts they prefer.
This week on Table Talk, Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd continue their series on the season of Advent by asking why it still matters today. They discuss the spiritual discipline of waiting in a culture obsessed with instant gratification, suggesting that Advent serves as a necessary pause button that allows believers to prepare their hearts for the coming of Christ rather than simply rushing toward Christmas Day.
The hosts also explore the theological tension of the "now and not yet," reminding listeners that Advent is not just a celebration of Jesus' birth, but an anticipation of His return. They reflect on the four hundred years of silence between the Old and New Testaments as evidence that God often does His best work during times of waiting, encouraging the church to embrace patience and hope amidst the busyness of the holiday season.
This week on Table Talk, Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd begin a new series exploring the origins and significance of Advent. They discuss the history of the season, noting its roots in the Latin word for "to come," and explain how it originally served as a time of fasting and preparation for baptism, much like Lent, before evolving into the Christmas preparation season we know today. The pastors emphasize that Advent is about more than just the birth of Jesus; it is a season of waiting that acknowledges the tension between Christ’s first arrival and His future return.
This week on Table Talk, Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd discuss the concept of addition by subtraction as the final step in their series on going deeper with God. They argue that to truly grow spiritually, one must often remove things like distractions, time-consuming commitments, or unhealthy habits to create the necessary space for a deeper relationship with Jesus.
The Pastors also explore the internal barriers of ego, pride, and people-pleasing. They examine how pride acts as a blinder to spiritual maturity and suggest that true depth requires the humility to admit when we are wrong. Finally, they tackle the danger of seeking approval from others, warning that while the church should value people over programs, the need to please everyone can ultimately hinder one’s ability to be a true servant of Christ.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
This week on Table Talk. Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd discuss how serving and giving can deepen one's relationship with God, arguing that it takes you to a different and deeper level than prayer or Bible reading alone. They explore why this kind of service, especially when it involves giving of one's time, gifts, or body for others, is so impactful, suggesting it aligns with our core purpose as humans.
The hosts also tackle the issue of burnout in the church. They believe exhaustion often occurs because people who are willing to serve are continually asked to do more, while others hesitate because they feel they can't perform the task exactly like the person currently doing it. The hosts agree that burnout is a matter of wisdom, urging the church to encourage everyone to serve in their own unique way to prevent a few people from carrying the entire load.
This week on Table Talk: Pastor Kyle Gatlin sits down with Dr. Carl Creasman to discuss Dr. Creasman's new administrative role and the challenge of reading the Bible. Dr. Creasman shares his approach to a deeper study, drawing a parallel between "collateral reading" in college and the common struggle Christians have with making time for God's Word. The conversation highlights that the Bible is the only book with the power of God, and they encourage listeners to find new ways—like listening chronologically—to renew their hunger for its singular, overarching story of redemption.
This week on Table Talk. Pastors Kyle Gatlin and Nick Shepherd discuss the common challenge of prayer "dryness" and the metaphor of "leaving the shallows" to go deeper in one's spiritual life. They emphasize that overcoming dryness requires persistence and experimentation with different prayer methods. The hosts conclude that the depth of one's faith is tied to the depth of prayer, which involves listening and ultimately changes how we see others.

The pastors discuss the significance of Jesus making his dwelling among us contrasting it with the Old Testament God who was Holy Other. They explore the 30 undocumented years of Jesus's life, where he lived a normal life in obscurity before his ministry. The Pastors conclude that Jesus is "God's self-portrait", showing humanity the attributes of the Father.
