The Table of Suffering | Pastor Ryan Williams


Listen Later

Even in suffering, Jesus gave thanks. 💔🍷This message reminds us that the table God calls us to may not always be comfortable — but it’s always covered in grace, purpose, and His presence.

In this message from our Full Plate series, we look at what it means to sit at The Table of Suffering. Jesus didn’t just die for us — He suffered with us. On the night He was betrayed, He still gave thanks, showing us that faith isn’t about denying pain but trusting God through it.

This table reminds us that Jesus understands our betrayal, pain, and weakness — because He’s been there. He invites us to share in His suffering now, so we can share in His glory later. Communion isn’t just remembrance; it’s response — a “yes” to God’s will even when it breaks us.

The table doesn’t promise comfort — it promises company. And in every season of suffering, we find the Savior who still sits with us, understands us, and never leaves us alone.
