"I have spent my life on both understanding as well as cultivating movements that change the world. So let me just start out by saying I really like this budding Jesus movement called The Table Network. They are a Jesus-centered, culturally vigorous, missionally adventurous, discipleship-oriented, church planting movement. I am excited about what they are doing, but even more so the way they are doing it. I expect something of the unfolding of the future of the Christian movement in their common work."

"The Table Network is an exciting missional movement focused on gospel saturation in cities in America and around the world. They are pioneering new methods to stir up kingdom movements of multiplication for the glory of God. Check 'em out!"

"God, through the Spirit, seems to be refocusing the church on the worldwide co-mission Jesus left us: to make disciples. The Table Network is one of the more promising networks that are equipping leaders and churches to live into movement. Their emphasis on people finding freedom in Christ as they connect with God's new family at the table, attests to their understanding of the grassroots work of movement, for it is simple, sticky and scalable. May God increase their tribe."
JR Woodward
National Director, V3 Church Planting Movement

"Making disciples from the harvest for the harvest, a true lost-to-disciple-making culture, is what The Table Network is all about. In an era where there is lots of noise around the subject, crowded with many aspirational leaders and theoretical philosophers, they are actually equipping the everyday Jesus follower to be fruitful and multiply."
Todd MilbyExecutive Director, Catapult/catapult.group

"Nothing is more central to the identity of a Christ- follower than their honoring God through making reproducing disciples who worship and obey Him. The Table Network is among those God is using in amazing ways to equip churches and church members to do just that. I'm thrilled to see their footprint of strategic influence expanding."
Dr. George G. RobinsonAssociate Professor of Missions & Evangelism Headrick Chair of World Missions

"The Table Network is doing a great job of leading people into life-changing relationships with Christ and then encouraging those individuals to help others follow that same path. Our team at World Partners has been impressed by their approach to the point that we've asked them to consider placing people in Europe to work and minister alongside our staff."
Dave MannDirector, World Partners

"I've seen the leaders of The Table Network create a culture of life change, that is powerful and transformative. They are leaders who take seriously what Jesus said to do. They are going into their world to make disciples who make disciples, and the Father is using this powerful tribe of leaders and churches."
Dan GriderFounder and Director, Ignite Church Network

"Slow Down is an insightful work for anyone committed to Jesus' words in the Great Commission. It provides a step-by-step approach to engaging those in your world with the gospel. The Table Network is an important resource to churches and Christians alike looking for a "how to" focused on engaging their friends, neighbors and co- workers with the gospel and seeing them come to faith in Jesus Christ."
