Question of the Week: The Lord's Supper


On the overwhelming majority of doctrinal issues, Protestants play nice together, and may even play well with some of our Catholic brothers and sisters. However, there are historically a few doctrines that denominations simply do not agree on. It is not that Baptists think that Presbyterians are going to hell or vice versa, but we cannot come to an agreement on these secondary doctrines. One such doctrine is the Lord's Supper.

The history of disagreement stems from all the way back to the Protestant Reformation, when Luther disagreed with the Catholic view of transubstantiation. Since that time, there are seemingly endless ways to think about the Lord's Supper. So the question of the week can be rather broad or narrowed as you like. Simply put, what do you think about the Lord's Supper? What do you think about it theologically speaking? What about practically, spiritually, or emotionally speaking?

Looking forward to thinking this one through this week and possibly hearing some feedback as well.
