Communion Mediations

At Big Creek Church we celebrate communion weekly, you can read the theological and practical reasons are from this series of posts on the Lord's Supper, part 1; part 2; part 3.

These are this past Sunday's Communion Meditations

The gospel must be preached afresh and told in new ways to every generation, since every generation has its own unique questions. The gospel must constantly be forwarded to a new address, because the recipient is repeatedly changing his place of residence.
Helmut Thielicke

"Anything God has ever done, he can do now. Anything God has ever done anywhere, he can do here. Anything God has ever done for anyone, he can do for you."
A.W. Tozer

Twas God the word that spake it, He took the Bread and brake it; And what the word did make it; That I believe, and take it.
Attributed to Queen Elizabeth I on being asked her opinion of Christ's presence in the Sacrament.

The problem with the church today is not corruption. It is not institutionalism. No, the problem is far more serious than something like the minister running away with the organist. The problem is pettiness. Blatant pettiness.
Mike Yaconelli in The Wittenburg Door (Dec./Jan. 1985).
