What actually happens at these dinner parties?
Our dinner parties are for those who want to explore the ‘big’ questions of life, faith, and meaning without the pressure. Think casual dinner party vibes: a great city venue, free food and drinks, and a room full of new, friendly people. It’s an authentic, down-to-earth night designed for you to just “come and see”. If you vibe with the conversation, come along the next week for more.
The following week keep the conversation going – it’s always a welcoming evening where we continue to explore life, faith, and meaning together. Each week follows the same relaxed format, helping you explore faith in a way that feels human, honest, without the pressure or expectation. Free food and drinks, and a chance to get to know people in a smaller group so you get a chance to say exactly what you think— even if you’re a total skeptic or just curious.

What’s your ideal vibe for meeting new people?
- A: Something chilled out like a dinner party—food, drinks, and no pressure to perform.
- B: I like high-energy networking events or loud bars where I don't really have to talk much.
- C: I like authentic spaces where I can just show up, be myself, and meet people who are genuinely looking for connection.
How do you feel about 'small talk'?
- A: It’s fine for a bit, but I’m actually craving a conversation that goes a bit deeper than the weather or work.
- B: I prefer to keep things light and surface-level; I’m not really looking to get into deep topics with new people.
- C: I don’t mind it, but I’d love a space where I can be real and say what I actually think without it getting weird.
What’s your take on exploring faith or "big" life questions?
- A: I’ve got everything figured out already and I’m not really interested in hearing other viewpoints right now.
- B: I’m a total skeptic (or just unsure), but I’m curious to hear what others think—as long as no one forces it on me.
- C: I’ve got some questions I’ve never really had the chance to ask, and I’m open to hearing a different perspective.
Friday night. Free dinner. Good conversation. You in?
- A: Honestly, a free meal and a chance to meet some new faces in the city sounds pretty good to me.
- B: I’m keen to try something different from my usual routine, especially if it’s welcoming and relaxed.
- C: I’d rather just stay in and order takeout solo; I’m not looking to add anything new to my week.
