Life Through Death: 52 Meditations on the Lord's Supper

By: Higgs, Elton D.

Seemingly lost in many churches is an active understanding of the centrality of the Lord's Supper in the life of the Church.

To address this problem, retired professor of English Dr. Elton D. Higgs presents Life Through Death: 52 Meditations on the Lord's Supper. These thought-provoking essays challenge Evangelical Christians to think more often and more deeply about the meanings of the Lord's Supper.

Higgs addresses two particular problems concerning the Lord's Supper in the life of the Church: Lack of thoughtful commentary designed for regular observance of Holy CommunionFailure to give the Lord's Supper a major and integrated role in worshipIn light of these problems, HiggsArticulates the theological implications of the Lord's SupperConnects observance of Communion with relevant sections of ScriptureFocuses on the power of spiritual and social fellowship in gathering around the Lord's Table.These meditations manifest a delightful variety, ranging from quick darts of a page or less to more complex essays of a few pages. The essays are grouped into seven thematical categories so that the related articles can be applied over several successive services. Readers will find these essays both elucidating and enhancing their experience of the Lord's Supper.
