Why did Jesus spend so much time eating with people respectable society rejected? In the Gospels, Jesus regularly shares meals with tax collectors, sinners, and outsiders—people the religious establishment avoided and often condemned. But in the ancient world, table fellowship carried deep meaning. To eat with someone was to extend dignity, belonging, and relationship. In this episode of That’s a Great Question, Scott Sauls explores why Jesus intentionally welcomed the “wrong” people to his table and what those surprising meals—from Levi’s feast to the Last Supper—reveal about the heart of God’s kingdom and the radical reach of grace.
