9.15 - Lord's Supper 3: Celebrating the Kingdom

About this episode

The episode explores the significance of the Lord's Supper and its implications for believers today.

Ritual? Meal? Nourishment? Remembrance? Micro-banquet? Flesh and blood? What is the Lord's Supper—and how are we meant to practice it? What does it have to do with the other meals we share as believers, and how do the practices of the early church shape our understanding today? Join the guys as they dig into the meaning behind the meal—and how it reveals Christ and His Kingdom, and the first fruits of the banquet to come.
