Is Prayer the Same In the Old Testament?

Things have changed a LOT since ancient days... or have they really? 😲 🤔 This time, join the table as Steve, Luke, and Shannon discuss the implications of the question, "What was prayer like back then?" Throughout the Old Testament, we assume that prayer is a deeply-rooted practice - but we never see it instituted, let alone explained before Jesus... So what's the deal?? Listen in, and find out how the answer affects YOUR prayer life. Happy listening, Table Tribe! 🔥

What Kept You In Church?

So... what actually keeps you in church? 🤔 In this episode, Luke and Emmerson get real — anti-traditionalism, people being baptised young (too young?), the "sheltered kid curse", and the pivotal role of present or absent mentors. Is staying in church about tradition… rebellion… responsibility… or something deeper? We talk faith that’s forced vs faith that’s formed, and what happens when children are given space to build their own relationship with God. This episode is honest. A little cheeky. And ultimately - deeply encouraging. Pull up a chair, Table Tribe, and happy listening! 🎧🔥

70's Bible Quiz & Uninformed Opinions

The last few weeks have been a bit heavy - so here's some fun to break it up! What do you get with three men, a few pages of paper, and a trivia game from the 70's? A podcast episode, apparently!! Come share the laughs as we dial up the competition. Who will win Bible Trivia? What is the "Segue Game"? Who has the worst handwriting? Then join a topic-weaving discussion on psychedelics, our favourite neolithic structures, mango-flavoured honey... and more. Happy listening, Table Tribe 🎧

We Let an Agnostic Ask Us Anything...

🎙️ Three Christians + an agnostic friend = a stellar conversation?! ✨ Welcome back, Table Tribe, to our latest episode. This week we welcome our friend/co-worker Rick, who helps us get to the real questions: ❓ Is the Bible valid, and how do we know? What is the ideal character of a god, if one exists? What's up with forbidden fruit, and how do love and free will factor in? How is theology like understanding a car motor? Why do people die for the Bible? And how easy is it to say "praise the Lord"? 😂 We bounce everywhere, while also feeling like we barely scratched the surface (Part 2 pending...!). Curious? Listen in! 🔥
