Abstract
Few books cause the church to re-examine its prejudices but "Remember Jesus" will be known as one. Steve Motyer is a New Testament Lecturer at London Bible College and New Testament Editor of the Crossway Bible Guides. In this practical handbook he looks at all the different influences on the Lord's Supper, investigates the practices surrounding it and demands radical changes to how we view and celebrate this event. He brings depth of understanding to us in an accesible way.
