DESCRIPTION:
Yeary follows with the “breaking of the bread,” in the book of Acts. After savoring the accounts of miraculous feedings, the accounts of the Last Supper as recorded in Paul and the Synoptic Gospels become the main course. Welcome to the Feast is an invitation to explore the theme of celebrating God’s unfolding covenant relationship with humanity in the context of a meal. Finally, we hear in Jesus’ bread of life discourse in John the call for all who are hungry for true food to come to the feast..
