We are a forgetful people in a land of distractions. Our minds are easily captivated by trivial and temporary inducements. New things quickly become old. In our mind’s eye even glory tends to fade and warnings tend to wane. It is no wonder that we who are invisibly united to Christ and visibly in and not of this world live in constant need of renewal. And what is true for the Christian is true for the church. This is a series that seeks to renew the mind of the church. Not so much by reviewing what she is called to do as much as what she is called. As with the Christian so with church, her God-given identity defines her. We who are the church are a people for God and none other.
Before we return to the book of Romans, we will be looking at the what scripture says about the Church, in its nature, how she expresses herself in song, and how the church cares and equips for its members.

In Remembrance of Christ
This message is purposed to inform and encourage our hearts toward an enlarged view of the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper, otherwise called Communion. In the practice of the Lord’s Supper, we are vividly reminded of the gospel and are recalibrated in faith. By it we extol Christ crucified and risen as the only means of our salvation and identify with one another in Christ. Through it we corporately confess our faith and proclaim Christ until He comes.
Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 11:26
