Biblical Dinners & Galilean Weddings

Two powerful events by Pastor Jay—presented locally, nationally, globally

What is a Biblical Dinner?

Imagine sitting down to dinner with friends at a low, odd-shaped table—the room glowing with ancient oil lamps. The table is set with a sumptuous meal straight from the Bible. You’re at a feast served thousands of years ago. You pray in Hebrew. You eat with your hands. You practice meal customs and table manners from Abraham’s time to the Last Supper. Your host walks you step by step through the forgotten significance of Biblical meals and their amazing spiritual application in everyday life. Your mind and heart overflow with a powerful new understanding of the Bible, provoked to a deeper walk in Christ’s love. It changes everything. It’s a Biblical Dinner. Based on Jay’s book, Broken Bread—soon to be released as a major documentary and book, Eating with the Enemy.

What is a Galilean Wedding?

It’s the middle of the night. You’re startled awake by joyous shouting and a blast from a ram’s horn trumpet. The clamor grows as you rush to the window to see an approaching parade of noisy revelers with burning torches. A man crowned with laurel leaves leads the procession—and on a queenly litter carried above the revelers rides a veiled woman, splendidly adorned. The bridegroom has come for his bride and the village rejoices. There’s going to be a wedding…!

The Bible speaks of a day whose sheer joy, majesty and love will outshine all other days. It’s a day where no expression of Scripture proclaims more magnificently the affection of Jesus for His Bride, the Church—and His great longing for her. The incarnation, the cross, the resurrection and ascension all point straight to this one supreme future event—The Wedding Feast of the Lamb. Whenever Jesus spoke of this day He used imagery that His disciples understood—the customs of a simple Galilean wedding. In the tradition of The Biblical Dinner, The Galilean Wedding recreates this ancient wedding, revealing the greatest event of the end of the world—the day the Bride is united with her Bridegroom forever. It will be Jesus’ greatest day—and ours. Now a major documentary and book, “Before the Wrath”  

FAQ: “How did Jay discover the Galilean Wedding?”

…the scholars and associates at the Biblical History Center, (especially Elfie, Barbara, Hannaniah Pinto and Dr. Jim Fleming) for inspiring this ministry; to my friend Gayle Erwin, who opened my eyes to the nature of Jesus, and to Dr. Rachel Roubin, who pointed me in the right direction. I encourage you to visit the Biblical History Center website to meet the people who have guided me on this journey. —Jay
