Announcing THE EMMAUS TABLE
Announcing THE EMMAUS TABLE: The app, YouTube channel, and social media profiles previously held by FAI STUDIOS will now belong to and be managed by TET, which will feature a collaborative team of editors and contributors from an intergenerational variety of ministries and local churches. You’ll recognize some teachers (you’ll still see Stephanie, Gabe, and Joel) and maybe meet a few you don’t know. We welcome our friends at FIRST FRUITS OF ZION, THE APOCALYPTIC GOSPEL, 49:TEN FILMS, and more.
Like many of you, we have watched the Lord draw a “thus far and no more” line in the Christian ministry world over the last few years. While we are grateful for His leadership to expose sin and purify His witness, it has been a heartbreaking and sobering season.
If you’re following the FAI STUDIOS app, YouTube channel, or social media profiles, you’re likely here because you care about the preeminence of Jesus, covenantal centrality of Jerusalem, return of the Lord, and proclamation of the Gospel of the Kingdom to the nations (particularly the Muslim world) and your neighbors in your neighborhood.
In an effort to “tear down the platform and use the wood to build a dinner table,” we humbly announce THE EMMAUS TABLE. Why Emmaus, and why a table?
Luke 24 describes a phenomenal journey, conversation, and revelation between Jerusalem and Emmaus that culminated around a table. We believe table fellowship is central to healthy Christian living. It is the antidote to the platform ethos that has proven so detrimental to Christian communities.
The app, YouTube channel, and social media profiles previously held by FAI STUDIOS will now belong to and be managed by TET, which will feature a collaborative team of editors and contributors from an intergenerational variety of ministries and local churches.

The previous baseline of weekly content will resume immediately: The Wire, the Maranatha Global Bible Study (MGBS), and the Inkwell articles & podcast, drawing from the diverse pool of TET’s contributors. As THE EMMAUS TABLE grows, this baseline content will grow as well. Additionally, quarterly and annual releases will also be published—all free of charge, and free forever.
Some things to look forward to: The film that began as ‘Covenant & Controversy IV’ is in post-production and will be formally announced soon. A 7-song rock & roll EP, DEATH + KINGDOM VOL. I: THE DEATH OF DEATH, is also preparing for release. These will feature study materials and further resources to supplement their release.
Much content from the FAI STUDIOS days will remain, but THE EMMAUS TABLE leadership feels strongly that it is irresponsible before the Lord to platform resources from proven wolves in sheep’s clothing. The material featuring FAI’s founder will be deplatformed as TET reconfigures the library.
We commit to you that this app and channel will always be home to teachings exploring the core values mentioned above. They will always be available for free. We are prioritizing translations into several languages at the top of our workflow to make this more easily available to the global Body. We are also deliberately engineering this growing resource library to facilitate and encourage small group study and fellowship in additional to individual study. And we are committed to stewarding THE EMMAUS TABLE in a way both healthy to the Body and honoring to Jesus.
May we all bear witness with a burning heart until He comes on the clouds in power and glory.
Maranatha.
In Jesus,
THE EMMAUS TABLE
