Why So Solemn? Reflections on Weekly Communion
Did Judas ruin the Lord’s Supper?
Seems like it.
The modern Church’s posture toward the Lord’s Supper is like a penitential whipping. We crucify ourselves for our sins as we remember His death. Heads hang low. Smiles are restrained. It’s all quite dour.
But this is not how the ancient Church practiced the Lord’s Supper. For them, it was a thanksgiving meal. It was a celebration of their Lord's life, death, and resurrection. They feasted, sang their lungs out, and they rejoiced.
Join Peter, Kyle, and Pastor Nate as they reflect on weekly communion, the command to celebrate, and how to eat the body and drink the blood of Christ as we remember our Lord until He returns.
