Holy Communion: Celebrating God With Us (Belief Matters)

Through the service of Communion, the church remembers and celebrates the presence of God with us. To some, Communion is an empty ritual, devoid of meaning or personal significance. Because of that, low worship attendance commonly accompanies Communion Sundays leaving churches feeling spiritually depleted. Holy Communion, the second in the Belief Matters series, offers a richer appreciation of the sacrament and gives insights and practical suggestions for allowing Communion to have a more prominent role in church life and the Christian formation of individuals. The more Christians link Communion with spiritual formation and daily faith practice, the more likely congregations will be invigorated and empowered to carry out the missional directive to transform the world. The book is suitable for a 4-week study with study questions at the end of each chapter. The Belief Matters series assists pastors and clergy in explaining fundamental elements of the church and its worship to congregations. Holy Communion is the second in the series and follows Incarnation by William H. Willimon.
