Table Talk

Table Talk II is a free weekly devotional that provides writings for use as a bulletin insert for congregations and for use in family devotions. It follows the historic one-year lectionary drawn from the Lutheran Service Book commonly used in Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS) congregations. ILT makes it available every week, free of charge, on our Resources page and by email subscription. Table Talk II’s message delivers God’s devotion to you, his wayward people, through his Son Jesus Christ.
