The Meal That Makes Us: Why Communion Should Be The Center of The Church Gathering | #79

About this episode

Zach, Jill, and Brandon discuss the significance of communion and its role in the church gathering.

Brandon’s back, just in time for one of the most important meals in Scripture where Jesus sits down with the disciples for Passover. Zach, Jill, and Brandon discuss why meals are everywhere in the Bible (from Eden to Exodus to the King’s table), and why communion isn’t just a “symbol” or a routine, it’s a weekly entrance into the story that forms our loves, confronts our pride, and binds us to one another as the body of Christ.
