Take Our Communion Survey (Plus News Briefs)

by | 4 August, 2022 | 0 comments

THIS SURVEY CLOSED AT MIDNIGHT FRIDAY. RESULTS WILL BE POSTED AUG. 10 —

Is your church still purchasing prepackaged Communion emblems for people to pick up as they gather for your in-person worship services, or have you gone back to preparing Communion trays on-site and passing them one person to another? 

Christian Standard has prepared a brief survey to determine how churches are practicing Communion today, now that many health restrictions have been lifted. All churchgoers are welcome to fill out the survey, which should take less than 2 minutes to complete. Responses are welcome until midnight Friday, Aug. 5. We will share the results next week.

The Necessary Estuary

Peace is more than a political policy or an abstract goal. Ultimately, we find peace in a Person: the “Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6). Christ is the necessary estuary.

Finding Joy When Life Isn’t Enjoyable

Joy is more than light-hearted levity based on happy circumstances. It’s not a fleeting feeling; it’s a fruit of the Spirit—a by-product of God’s presence in your life.
