Sermons About Eucharist
Peter Gerts One Right
This statement about his body and blood is the turning point in Jesus’ ministry; the place where he went from being just a curiosity or a miracle worker, to becoming a scandal. The Greek word for “a scandalous one” is “scandalon.” In English bibles, it is usually translated “stumbling stone.” When we compare Jesus to a “stumbling stone” what we mean that there is a time when everyone encounters the person of Christ and has to pull up short – the time when there is a choice to be made to believe him or not, to follow him or leave.

Bread of Heaven
By having us ask God the Father bread every day, Jesus gives us a way to remember that God is our provision.

Welcome to the Table
Communion, the Lord's Supper is one of those things that many Christians participate in but do not necessarily understand. This act of Worship was commanded by Christ and it is important to understand why we are to do this. The Lord's supper is meant to be so much more than just a dry routine. Remember Jesus by understanding and celebrating the Lord's Supper.
