Join us as we continue our series on Giving Thanks - Eucharist;
with Canon Tim Clayton's sermon part 3:
Re-Member, Re-Connect
The word “Eucharist” is a transliteration of the Greek word eucharistia, which is itself a translation of the Hebrew word berekah. All three words have the meaning of thanksgiving, or praise for the wonderful works of God. For the Eastern Orthodox, Eucharist is "living in thanksgiving".
As we enter this final study on Thanksgiving-Eucharist, Canon Tim Clayton shares some fascinating insights into the last supper, and the power and beauty of self-giving love. Showing us co-suffering/self-giving love, Jesus walked voluntarily into his suffering and released into the world the only thing that you 'get more of' when you 'give more of':
Love - self-giving love.
The more of it we give, the more of it returns; the more love we give, the more it grows.
When we come to the table together to receive the bread and wine, Jesus is with us and He's giving himself to us represented in the bread and wine saying, "I want to reconnect myself to you"
