Subject: Physically Correct Communion? |
Bible Note: Hey EdB, Coming from a tradition of communion being served every Sunday at morning worship, communion services can become fairly routine...i know that sounds awful, I work hard to focus on it every time. However, our Elders wanted to place a special emphasis on the blood, the bread, the body of Christ. It was hoped that breaking out of our regular 'routine' would invoke some self examination. I don't personally have a preference about how it's taken. As you said, it's the mind (and the heart) that counts to God, I'm sure. But anything that can be effective in waking up a sleepy church has to be considered, in my book. Tnx for replies. |
