In Take and Eat: Recovering the Regular Celebration of the Lord's Supper, author Harrison Perkins explains how the Lord's Supper is a gift to the church from Jesus Christ that should be regularly celebrated. Weekly communion services have long been part of the Protestant tradition, even reaching back to the early church, as a form of gospel proclamation.

By recovering this regular practice today, Christians will come to appreciate the Supper as a wonderful encounter with Christ, who again and again reminds sinners of his love and grace poured out for them on the cross.
