There is miraculous power in the sacrament of communion.
More than a religious ritual, communion is a doorway into untapped realms of God's glory and miracle-working power.

Discover communion as...
- A sacred place of intimacy with God.
- A weapon of spiritual warfare.
- A prophetic act that creates dynamic change.
- A catalyst for total healing.
Join Beni and Bill Johnson on this journey of rediscovery, and open yourself to a powerful encounter with the living God!
Considered by many to be one of the most influential German
Pietists, August Hermann Francke lived during a moment when an
emphasis on conversion was beginning to produce small shifts in how
the sacraments were defined-a harbinger of later, more dramatic
changes to come in evangelical theology. In this book, Peter James
Yoder uses Francke and his theology as a case study for the
ecclesiological stirrings that led to the rise of evangelicalism
and global Protestantism. Engaging extensively with Francke's
manuscript sermons and writings, Yoder approaches Francke's life
and religious thought through his theology of the sacraments. In
doing so, Yoder delivers key insights into the structure of
Francke's Pietist thought, providing a rich depiction of his
conversion-driven theology and how it shaped his views of the
sacraments and the church. The first in-depth study of Francke's
theology written for an English-speaking audience, this book
supports recent scholarship in English that not only challenges
long-held assumptions about Pietism but also argues for the role of
Pietism's influence on the changing religious landscape of the
eighteenth century. Through his examination of Francke's theology
of the sacraments, Yoder presents a fresh view into the
eighteenth-century ecclesiological developments that caused a
rupture with the dogmas of the Reformation. Original and vital,
this study recognizes Francke's importance to the history of
Pietism in Germany and beyond. It will become the standard
reference on Francke for American audiences and will influence
scholarship on Lutheranism, Pietism, early modern German studies,
and eighteenth-century history and religion.
With the season of Advent, the coming of Christ is imminent, and
following the contours of the season leads through a rich time of
preparation for God-with-us in the Incarnation. R. S. Thomas, a
poet of waiting and anticipation, can be a profound guide for this
season. His spiritual and poetic trajectory of discovering the
presence of God - divine 'frequencies' - even in apparent absence,
can help lead us into an Advent landscape of surrender,
open-hearted discovery, epiphany and encounter. This collection of
28 reflections on Thomas's poetry travels through the season, and
follows one of the traditional patterns of themes explored in each
Sunday of Advent: a Carmelite pattern of waiting, accepting,
journeying and birthing.
Miracles wait at the communion table.
