    The biggest threat to churches today is fans who call themselves Christians but they aren’t interested in following Jesus. They want to be close enough to get all the benefits, but not so close that it requires anything from them. Adopted from "Not a Fan"

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jan 18, 2019
     | 6,887 views

    Paul, in I Corinthians 10:23-34, reminds us that if we would eat and drink this Supper to our benefit, we must be looking in four directions. In communion, we must be looking back, looking ahead, looking within and looking around.

    Something special is about to happen this morning. Something miraculous. Paul in chapter 10 of this same letter calls it a "participation in the body and blood of Jesus Christ." We know it as communion. As we take a piece of bread and cup of juice, we will be participating in a mystery. ...read more
