For more than thirty years, Tabletalk has existed as a magazine for laymen. Generally speaking, laymen receive either very little instruction in the weightier matters of the faith, or the instruction is too academic, thereby making the material largely inaccessible to average laymen. This is the reason Tabletalk exists — to bridge the gap between these two poles, to explain to the people of God important, biblical doctrines and events while admonishing them toward holy living.
Contributors include R.C. Sproul along with R.C. Sproul Jr., Keith Mathison, Robert Godfrey, John MacArthur, Ken Jones, Robert Barnes, Brent Bradley, O. Palmer Robertson, Burk Parsons, Douglas Wilson, and Ethen Harris. Tabletalk features articles about topics central to the Christian faith and daily, in-depth Bible studies.
“They rejected the ‘just me and my Bible’ approach with a deadly vigor. They understood that while there was no inerrant repository of tradition to guide our understanding of the Bible, there was a tradition that was a gift from God.” (Page 6)
“While it claims to elevate Scripture to the place of supreme authority, it always elevates the mind of each individual to the position of final authority. The result has been theological chaos.” (Page 54)
“The evangelical church, if it is anything, is egalitarian, affirming not only the priesthood of all believers but the popehood of all believers. With ‘me and my Bible,’ I can speak infallibly.” (Page 7)
“Not surprisingly, wherever there is a preoccupation with ‘fresh’ prophecy, there is invariably a neglect of the Scriptures.” (Page 16)
“They refused to treat these good gifts of God as tainted and untouchable simply because Rome had abused them” (Page 7)
Tabletalk has been a key ingredient in the diet of Christians conscious of their spiritual vitality.

Month by month, Tabletalk represents an oasis in a desert of false spirituality, mindless Christianity, and vapid conviction. Tabletalk represents theological rigor, biblical Christianity, and authentic Christian devotion. It is an antidote to the world of superficial Christianity. Read it and grow.
