This will be one of those posts that get us thinking about Sunday morning’s topic. This Sunday I will be preaching from 1 Peter 1:13-25 (NLT)

This week as we take communion, we want to focus on celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Our worship this week will reflect this thought. So often we only focus on the sacrificial price that Jesus paid on the cross when we take communion. This week we will focus on the victorious Christ, who conquered sin, death, hell, the grave.

Something to think about for Sunday. Is celebration a bad thing when it comes to communion?Before you answer let me give you the definition from dictionary.com.

cel·e·brate

• To observe (a day or event) with ceremonies of respect,… or rejoicing.
• To perform (a religious ceremony)
• To extol or praise.

We have several things to celebrate when we partake in communion. Can you think of what they are based on the Scripture above? If you don’t attend Preston Wesleyan, I will follow up on this post on Sunday afternoon to see where we go with this.
