We will be studying Communion/The Lord’s Supper/The Eucharist. The central question to this unit will be one that I have asked myself, and which I know others share — “I have communion every month, but sometimes I feel like I’m not getting out of it what I should, or that it could be a more meaningful experience. What am I missing?”
Sure, we’re going to have some theological discussions, and sure, we’ll throw around some words like “transubstantiation,” but the focus of this class will be to understand why we practice communion as we do and how to enhance our communion experience through better understanding and preparation each time it is offered at church. After the more lecture-oriented style that the unit on Mormonism necessitated, this will be a return to discussion-oriented class.
