Yet many Christians do not understand Communion or seeit only as an empty ritual. Because of that, low worship attendance orenthusiasm commonly accompanies Communion Sundays—leaving churchesfeeling spiritually depleted. This book provides insights and practicalsuggestions for giving this sacrament a more prominent role, not justin church life, but in the Christian formation of small groups, Sunday school classes, and as a preaching resource, Holy Communion: Celebrating God with Us byKenneth M. Loyer and general editor William H. Willimon is suitable fora four-week study and includes discussion questions at the end of eachchapter. The Belief Matters series assists pastors and clergy in explaining fundamental elements of the church and its worship to congregations. Holy Communion is the second in the series and follows Incarnation by William H. Willimon.“I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Holy Communion, spiritual renewal or church vitality. Loyer’s offering is highly readable yet still substantive. Indeed, there is plenty of meat on the bones here even for those well-read in liturgical theology and worship or church growth more broadly. Moreover, each chapter contains a series of reflection questions and a prayer, making it ideal for small groups and Sunday School classes. I highly recommend this new resource for both, as well as churchwide study.” Drew McIntyre - an Elder in the Western North Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church and serves West Bend UMC.
