Sunday 2/2/25Pastor Glenn Meadows1. Everyone in the early church had seen or been touched by the ministry of Jesus.2. Imagine sitting around a table and sharing a meal with a group of people who loved you unconditionally and whose lives had been changed in the same way as yours.3. When communion feels like an obligation rather than a life-changing necessity, we need to take a look at our spiritual life.The purpose of the Lord's Supper is to receive from Christ the nourishment and strength and hope and joy that come from feasting our souls on all that He purchased from us on the cross, especially His own fellowship. -John Piper
