Living Out the Lord's Supper: Why Being at the Table Is Just the Beginning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798995295204)

Christians view and practice the Lord's Supper differently. Despite these differences, faith remains, and belief is sincere. What unites believers across these traditions is a shared question: How does the table shape the life that follows? For many, that connection can feel unclear.

This book begins with a simple conviction: The Lord's Supper was never meant to be an ending. It was meant to be a beginning.

On the night He gathered with His disciples, Jesus did something strikingly simple. He took bread, blessed it, broke it, and shared it. Those movements reveal more than a moment in Scripture. They reveal a pattern - a rhythm meant to shape how believers understand their identity, their healing, and their calling in the world.

We are taken - chosen by God and held in His hands.

We are blessed - met with mercy we did not earn.

We are broken and wounded - by our own failures and by life in a fallen world.

And we are shared - sent outward so that what God has done in us might bring hope to others.

"Living Out the Lord's Supper moves Communion beyond a church ritual and into everyday life. It offers practical spiritual reflection that gently challenges us to live the rhythm of Christ. Communion becomes not only remembrance, but mission."

- Doug B., Florida

"A wonderful exploration of how the Lord's Supper is a beginning, not an end. The author has a gifted way of relating the rhythm of the Table to our personal spiritual growth. I gained a deeper appreciation for how God's grace moves through our brokenness into the world."

- Paul C., North Carolina

"This book is destined to become a devotional classic that will enrich every Christian who reads it. Many have wondered why Jesus instituted the Lord's table and what it means. This book provides the answer - not just in theological terms, but in real, living terms for all of those who are called, blessed, broken, and shared by God for God's world."
