Let's Return to Our Roots

"The most visible and profound way in which the community gives physical expression to its fellowship is the common meal.  The word "deipnon" (1 Cor. 11:20), meaning "dinner", tells us that it (the Last Supper) was not a token meal (as it has become since) or part of a meal (as it is sometimes envisaged) but an entire, ordinary meal."
