The eucharist is one of the central acts of worship for Christians
- some would say the most important. Yet within the many traditions
of Christianity, there appears to be no united voice -even in an
age like ours in which ecumenical agreements unthinkable until
recently have sought convergence and achieved it. Anglicans have
often been described as occupying a 'middle ground' between
Catholics and Protestants. They have even been criticised for being
woolly! In this well-presented and readable book, two scholars have
set out to chart an Anglican course through the key-areas of
eucharistic presence and sacrifice - how Jesus is present at the
Supper and how the celebration relates to the self-offering of
Christ. They quote many authors from different viewpoints over the
past four hundred years - including poets. They tell a story that
is rich and varied. And they make accessible to a fresh generation
what it means to define, sift, probe and discuss the meaning of the
Holy Communion, yet still hold on to that vital aspect of all
Christian belonging and living - the mystery of Christ Himself.
