The Lord's Supper: Our Promised Place of Intimacy and Transformation with Jesus

From the very beginning, the Lord's Supper has stood at the heart of Christian worship. But over the years we've turned it into a monthly ritual squeezed in between "real" worship. If Jesus lives in us, and the Holy Spirit is poured out on us, why do we need to eat bread and drink wine? Does it really matter? It does matter-and it's life-changing, says leading Pentecostal theologian Jonathan Black. With warmth and depth, he explores not only the biblical and historical significance of the Lord's Supper, but also how the Table is still a powerful place of transformation and encounter with Jesus. Whether you're feeling the lack of his presence or are ashamed of sin in your life-or have never felt anything during Communion-Black helps you see that Christ's call to his Table is a call to the promise of presence, glory, healing, forgiveness, victory, and intimacy. And Christ's invitation to partake in his feast is your invitation to taste and see that the Lord is good.
