Communion: Relationship and Remembrance

May 18, 2025 | Bible Engagement Project

Communion is about remembrance & relationship. During Jesus' time on Earth, He was all about community, doing life with others, being shoulder to shoulder with people. The Bible records many of Jesus' interactions and most of them are with those he loved deeply and sharing a meal with them. One of the most practiced meals is called "Agape feast" or "love" feast, this is depicted in Luke 22:15-30 with the first Agape Feast Jesus had with his disciples the night before his murder on the Cross. Jesus led the Disciples in showing them that the meal they were having was to be a time they remembered the ultimate gift He gave us, His life. We are encouraged to hold our own Agape feasts to this day. Communion in the modern day symbolizes Jesus giving his body and blood for us to have a way to be with Him in eternity.
