In his sermon, Remember, Pastor Ashley asks us, “What symbols do you have in life that cause you to remember a moment or a season of your life?” When preparing to partake of communion, we understand the imperative to examine ourselves and to remember Christ and His sacrifice. We understand that the bread and juice represent the body and the blood of Jesus. Pastor Ashley points out the additional imperative from John 6:56 to abide, which means (in the Greek) to “remain and continue to remain” connected to Jesus in everyday life, not just on Sundays and Wednesdays.
