Welcome to the Crazy Love Podcast.

Finally, after a long hiatus, we are back and excited to catch you up.

In this week's episode, Pastor Francis Chan speaks on the importance and the power and

partaking in the Lord's Supper.

For the early church, we see communion being the primary reason to gather and worship.

Our hope and prayer is that communion would no longer be an afterthought the church, but

the presence of Christ and the breaking of bread would be central.

This message was from the We Are Church Gathering on September 12th at the Fox Theatre.

So praise God, we hope you are really encouraged.

Let's jump right in.

You know, you never know how something is going to turn out the first time you try it.

And we just thought, let's get the church body together for communion.

And I was praying about this yesterday and it's so easy to get distracted with details

when you go to a new place and you try something different.

I mean, one thing the elders were together on was we need to get serious about devoting

ourselves to the Lord's Supper.

It's just something we see in scripture, something we see in that early church and we

want to just have a real reverent time coming before the body and blood of Jesus.

And yet when we get together in a place like this where we've never been, it's weird

and you have a different group and you kind of don't know where to sit.

Do we put all the Chinese over here?

Like how do we mix this up and everything else?
