Building on his previous work on embodied liturgy, Frank C. Senn
explores the relationship between the sacramental body and blood of
Christ, the ecclesial body of Christ, and the body of the
communicant. Drawing on the richness of the eucharistic traditions
and his own life experiences, this book expands our understandings
of the Eucharist to include pilgrimage to the altar (ad altare
Dei), a life of gratitude (anaphora), cosmology and praise (preface
and Sanctus), body and memory (anamnesis), Spirit and community
(epiclesis), Trinitarian orthodoxy and world view (doxology),
presence and union with Christ (communion), and initiation and
reconciliation (fencing the table). It argues for use of a full
eucharistic prayer to express a wider understanding of the
Eucharist, including creation themes, an emphasis on the passion of
Christ to connect the Eucharist to suffering humanity, an expansion
of the fellowship dimension of the Eucharist to embrace the church
in heaven and around the world, a recovery of Trinitarian praise,
an ecumenical exploration of how we understand theologically the
presence of Christ received bodily, and a reconsideration of the
value of initiation in sacramental discipline and in the life of
faith.
