Gospel Portions Table Talks Intro
Rob Mapstead introduces Gospel Portions Table Talks with Laura Mapstead and founder Roy Walkup Miles, explaining the vision to honor Jesus near the 2,000-year anniversary of His ministry by walking through the Gospels together. Roy describes how the idea came from Jewish Torah portions and became 182 “Gospel portions” that align with the 182 weeks of Jesus’ three-and-a-half-year ministry, posted weekly for shared study. He defines a portion as a section of scripture and highlights five recurring themes in every portion—preaching, deliverance, healing, teaching, and prophecy—urging believers to learn and apply what Jesus said and did. The hosts invite anyone to join, emphasizing heart-level transformation, observation-interpretation-application, and weekly interactive lessons via the Gospel Portions app at gospelportions.com, beginning November 1.
