And rising up, he went from there to the area of Tyre and Sidon. And entering into a house, he intended no one to know about it, but he was not able to remain hidden. For a woman whose daughter had an unclean spirit, as soon as she heard about him, entered and fell prostrate at his feet. For the woman was a Gentile, by birth a Syro-Phoenician. And she petitioned him, so that he would cast the demon from her daughter. And he said to her: "First allow the sons to have their fill. For it is not good to take away the bread of the sons and throw it to the dogs." But she responded by saying to him: "Certainly, Lord. Yet the young dogs also eat, under the table, from the crumbs of the children." And he said to her, "Because of this saying, go; the demon has gone out of your daughter." And when she had gone to her house, she found the girl lying on the bed; and the demon had gone away.

In Mark 5–7, we see Jesus and the disciples “zig-zagging” back and forth across Lake Galilee. The disciples must have felt disoriented with all the movement, but Jesus was clearly in charge of their itinerary. He seems to be on a purposeful mission, and none of his encounters with people are accidental or unanticipated. This five-day series will explore some encounters, particularly Jesus’ missional words and actions.

Life presents so many individuals with numerous challenges. One may feel that God has called them for a special purpose but aren’t sure what to do or how God’s plan will unfold. In the Determined to Follow Jesus Bible plan readers will discover in scripture accounts where individuals were determined to follow Jesus in their uncertainties and how their obedience and faith produced victorious results.
Inspired by ‘the toilet table’ in a popular British sitcom, this plan is themed around different tables from both modern culture and the Bible. It examines what it’s like having your feet firmly planted under God’s table. God’s table is one where all are welcomed and all can find community, joy, forgiveness, and feasting. Each daily devotion is a tale of two tables - one which doesn’t represent God’s table well, and one which strongly does. If you don’t like the table you are currently sitting at, be encouraged that God is able to turn the tables!
