How Often Should We Observe Communion? - a podcast by Jonathan Michael Jones

Commonly
referred to as Communion, the Eucharist, or even the Great Thanksgiving, the
Lord’s Supper is one of two ordinances of the church and, thus, must be
considered a serious and sacred act of worship. I recently had a conversation
with another worship leader who said to me that the Lord’s Supper is not an act
of worship. I was stunned, to say the least. If Communion is not an act of
worship, what is it? Contrarily, not only is Communion an act of worship, it is
also a vital sacred act of fellowship in the body of Christ. To neglect the
Lord’s Supper, is to disobey Christ’s institution of and command to partake in
it. Doubtlessly, believers should prioritize the Lord’s Supper. A good question
then is this: how often should a church observe the Lord’s Supper? There are
varying opinions on this matter. Communion was a crucial aspect of my doctoral
studies so I have four thoughts regarding the interval between a church’s
Lord’s Supper observances.
