The Lord's Supper

The Lord’s Supper

Week of March 4, 2018

John 6:26-58

Connect

This week’s focus is on The Lord’s Supper, a term that more Baptists and non-denominational folks tend to use.  As your group gathers and connects together, invite them to consider their answer to this question:

What are you often thinking about when you come to the communion table?

Pray

Your group has their own rhythm of prayer and how they focus on the measures and their questions by now.  As you consider where you are in the middle of Lent, you might reflect on the question of Trusting: Where does God Rank?

Make sure during this time that you pray for one another.

Reflect

During this time you will read sections from John 6:26-58 together.

Read John 6:32-35.

How does the idea of Christ as the host of the communion table affect the way you think about communion? 

            *Who is welcome at the table?

Read John 6:48-51.

What would you have thought if you were listening to Jesus that day and he was saying that people should eat his flesh?

How have you seen and experienced Jesus as your bread of life?

Read John 6:53-56.

How can the practice of the Lord’s Supper sustain you? 

            *Is there something missing in worship and in your life without communion?
