Listening to these words this morning made me think of the Lord's Supper
"There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiments." --from song, If i stand, by rich mullins
My great fear is that many people, yes, even in Christ Community, are sentimental about the Lord's Supper.... viewing this as some cleaned-up talisman we can rub for good luck... but it is really about our declaring our small "l" loyalty to Jesus and his allCAPS LOYALTY to His people, which includes little ol' me. Anyway,
Here is a link to the 1st of a 4 part interview with the late Rich Mullins. Listening to him will make you:
--Mad
--Cry
--Laugh
and at every few minutes you notice you have moved across the room towards Jesus because you want to be closer to Him... people like this are such a rush...
