Episode notes

The Lord's Supper is Jesus saying I surrender all. The activity that we have to do that then replaced Supper, that is what I think impoverishes the sort of memorial view of what goes on in the Supper because it becomes about what we do. And I think this is that revivalism. We can't even disagree about it because the altar call really did and a lot of other gimmicks take the place of the Lord's Suppers.

When new converts are brought into the church, they are often loaded up with the need to read the Bible, pray, practice repentance, and get into the community—but equally vital to spiritual health is a right understanding of and participation in the means of grace. In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland discuss how the means of grace are used for our sanctification and why they are central to life and identity in the church.
