This Do In Remembrance Of Me

Contributed by Dale Carter Sr. on Aug 17, 2021

Sometimes men put for to many qualifications on this scripture. Jesus said as often as you do this, do it in remembrance of me. Paul repeated the same. I believe the object of community is to reflect back on what the Lord has done for us all.

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Aug 22, 2021

An army moves on it's stomach. Nutrition provides energy for the fight ahead and so it is with the Christian army.

October 01, 2016 There is an old saying: “An army marches on its stomach” – if an army doesn’t feed its men it’s not going anywhere.

Remember The Cross

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 8, 2021

The battle cries of our national history have been, “Remember the Alamo,” and “Remember Pearl Harbor.” Why in the world should we remember great defeats? It is because, like the cross, they become great defeats out of which came greater victories.

The Connection Between The Lord’s Supper And The Upper Room

Contributed by James Snyder on Jun 17, 2017

No matter how long you have been a Christian there are still more wondrous things to be discovered about the Christian life. And it is the challenge of my life each day to seek more and more of what it means to be a Christian.

Matthew 26:17-35; John 20:19-31 F. W. Boreham has a very interesting essay on the subject, “Seek and ye shall Find.” He takes a different twist on the Scripture and I was fascinated by it.
