| Summary: | While Churches of Christ (a cappella) have historically given prominence to the Lords Supper by observing it weekly, that observation has become ritualized and formulaic over time, often impeding the worshipers heartfelt communion with the Lord. With its analysis of contemporary worship in Churches of Christ (a cappella), biblical narratives of Jesus meals, and church history, this study reflects the recent scholarly interest in the Lords Supper among scholars of that tradition and urges church leaders to restore the affective, vertical dimension to Communion practice. |
