OFF SCRIPT
Even though Jesus was not the father of his disciples, as their rabbi he led the ritual and retold the old, old story. Then Jesus went off script in Mark 14:22-24.

SERVICE IS POWER
What we remember at this time of Communion is not how much Jesus knew but how much he loved us, and this love drove him to the cross.

IT IS FINISHED
As we take the bread and the cup today, let’s hold onto this: “It is finished.” The debt is settled. The slate is clean.

REMEMBER THE DAYS
Whatever memories the days of our walk with the Lord have provided, we should always remember that they have come only because of the three days we remember especially during Communion.

PSALMS JESUS COULD HAVE PRAYED
For God to save Jesus meant that we could not be saved; for Jesus to be delivered from evildoers meant that we evildoers could never be delivered.

HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HIMSELF
As we take these emblems of Communion, let us do so with deepest respect and reverence for the Son and his sacrifice.
CLOTHING AND COMMUNION
Jesus left us with a means of remembrance through Communion to look at weekly and remind ourselves of our King who left heaven to come to earth and give his life at the cross for our sins.

The God Who Sees and Hears
At Communion, we remember that the God who sees and hears became flesh, with a body and blood that we partake of through these emblems.

Truths That Hold Us
Consider this time of Communion our “Declaration of Dependence” upon our Savior.
In Remembrance of His Remembrance
May each day we are granted be lived in remembrance of Jesus because of what he did in remembrance of us.

Empty
On the third day after he suffered and died, Jesus vacated that place of death and he will never return. We continue our worship with a picture of the promise God has in store for every believer.

Wild Loving
Communion may not qualify as a “home-cooked meal,” but it is a meal that welcomes us home to our Father’s table and foreshadows what awaits when we do go home to our Father.

The Sheep’s Psalm
Here we celebrate the unspeakable liberty and joy of being a sheep within the fold of Christ, and here we proclaim the Lord’s overcoming death, until he comes again.

Pierced
Jesus’ sacrificial death was an event of joy along with a time of grief. This time when God’s people gather to partake of Communion should follow that pattern.

Pausing to Remember
Communion provides a pause each Lord’s Day to refresh us and to encourage us to run our race faithfully for Jesus “until he comes” (1 Corinthians 11:26).

Our Cornerstone
Before we come to the Lord’s Table, let’s each examine our heart and our life. Now is the time to repent of any sin and ask God’s forgiveness for time and materials we’ve wasted.

“Mother of All the Living”
Eve was granted the privilege of living up to her name, for she became “mother of the Living One,” Christ Jesus, who destroyed the devil’s work (1 John 3:8).
Campus Revivals and the Lord’s Table
As we partake of the Lord's Supper, we’re reminded that the same Jesus who met fishermen by the sea, who called tax collectors and sinners to follow him, is meeting students in lecture halls and late-night study sessions today.

Our Opening Day
It may renew and encourage us when we take Communion to think back to the day of our baptism into Christ, when we came forth from our own tomb and our own record of sins was wiped clean.

Who Will Roll the Stone Away?
As you take Communion, thank God that when the stone was moved, the tomb was empty.
