1 Corinthians 11 Sermon | Remembering Christ in Communion

What does it truly mean to come to the Lord’s Table, and how does taking Communion guard us against a "shrinking" view of Jesus?In this communion message on 1 Corinthians 11:23–32, Lead Pastor Neil McClendon unpacks the three core calls of the Lord’s Supper: to remember who Christ is, to proclaim His death until He comes, and to examine ourselves faithfully before partaking. Drawing from scriptures across John, Colossians, Isaiah, and Revelation, Pastor Neil confronts the ease with which we forget our need for a Savior or lose sight of His cosmic glory. Discover how recognizing the depth of our depravity makes the wonder of God's grace shine even brighter, and learn what it means to discern the body of Christ in our daily lives.In this episode, we cover:Remembering the Fullness of Christ: Moving beyond a small, one-dimensional view of Jesus to behold Him as Creator, Suffering Servant, and coming King.Proclaiming His Death: Understanding Communion as a public declaration of our deep need for salvation and the complete sufficiency of Christ's cross.Self-Examination and the Church: Recognizing how personal sin impacts the broader body of Christ and why true self-examination flows from Gospel grace rather than self-hatred.Living as Loved and Beloved: Resting in the eternal assurance that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.Be sure to follow us:InstagramFacebookYoutube
