Why We're HereThe Sunday morning gathering that became a symbol of our faith — and why we decided to keep the conversation going. In this pilot episode, Jacob and Sam tell the origin story of Table Talk: how it began as an anti-event at the church where they both worked, why they kept pulling up chairs long after the church-staff chapter ended, and what they mean when they say faithful curiosity. They share some questions still alive for them, introduce the quilting metaphor that runs through everything they do, and ground the whole project in two verses held in creative tension — Galatians 5:6 and Proverbs 25:2. Less explaining, more exploring. Pull up a chair.⸻Chapters00:00 Cold open02:08 Welcome to Table Talk04:09 How Table Talk began10:23 Curiosity over answers13:36 The table becomes a lab15:49 Jacob's mystery: prayer17:24 Sam's mystery: spiritual beings20:29 Faithful curiosity as a banner24:00 Is this deconstruction?29:30 The quilting metaphor37:21 Two verses, one framework46:00 The royal vocation of curiosity51:44 Pulling up chairs⸻ScriptureGalatians 5:6 — "The only thing that matters is faith expressing itself in love."Proverbs 25:2 — "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings."⸻ConnectWeb: tabletalk.fmEmail: [email protected] / TikTok / YouTube: @tabletalkfmfaithful curiosity + patchwork spirituality
