Summary

An introduction to the doctrine and practice of the Lord's Supper, Take Eat, Take Drink guides the reader through the landscape of theological and historical issues related to Holy Communion. Ernest Bartels offers a rich picture of the ways congregations have celebrated the Sacrament throughout the centuries as he reveals the meaning and significance of the Eucharist for God's people. This analysis of the apostles' teaching in Scripture, the traditions and abuses of the medieval church, and the "rediscovery" of the evangelical character of the Holy Meal in the Reformation includes a discussion of the doctrinal positions of various church bodies.
