Good Friday: Lord’s Supper
Before we partake in communion, I want to explain some background to help us see why we, as the body of Christ, need to repent before God, and Lord willing, before one another so that we can truly gather at the foot of the cross as ONE unified, redeemed, forgiven people of God.…
Lord’s Supper – 1 Cor 10
Read 1 Cor 10:14-22

Lord’s Supper Portion
The Lord’s Supper is grounded in the Last Supper between Jesus and his disciples. During that final meal, Jesus instituted the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper.

God blesses community because He is community. God blesses family because He is family. It’s in the DNA of this church to know the importance of each member being part of a greater whole, the body of Christ. Where 2 or 3 are gathered, Jesus says, I will be in your midst.…

Matthew 26: The Last Supper and the Lord's Supper pt 2 of 4
That’s one prophecy from the book of Jeremiah. We pick up the strand of God’s redemption history in Zech 11. Zechariah was another prophet who came upon the scene after Jeremiah.
