Summary

In today's episode, the guys discuss communion and how this practice is extremely central to faith. They talk about how communion is a sacred doctrine and how this sacrament symbolizes a recognition and renewal of a covenant with Him.

All right, friends! Today we are talking about communion. The Lord's supper, the Lord's table,

0:07.6

it's called a number of different things. But this for me, guys, was always seen through the

0:14.8

eyes of Catholicism, because that's what I grew up as a Catholic, and we did it every week.

0:21.6

And it was a very somber and sober time. Now, we've talked about Catholicism on here before,

I want to say at the outset we love Catholics, but of course, Transubstantiation is not biblical,

0:34.9

0:59.5

I said, but two days I studied the Soviet Union, I thought it was going to go much off.

1:43.1

But it didn't prove that your name doesn't matter if you can sing Engelbert Humberdink.

1:48.4

That's not a real name. It wasn't as given the first of all, let me just say.

1:53.2

Is it a real person? Yeah. Well, first of all, I'm surprised you know who that is.

1:57.9

Because I had no idea who the guy was until one day I was driving down the street and I saw

2:01.6

his name on a billboard and I thought it was a joke. No. And so my friend Eric Sorensen goes,

2:06.0

oh, yeah, Engelbert Humberdink, my mom's a big fan. It does sound. He is a guy with a magnificent

2:13.2

voice. And that's what made him think. I believe it or not, one of the most amazing voices I've ever
