The bread of life, and the life of bread

Throughout history, bread has been synonymous with life. Bread in one form or another has sustained life. But bread also has a deeply emotional connection for many of us. Pastor Phil Kniss shared some stories about his appreciation for, and love of, bread. In John 6:35-51, Jesus says that He is the Bread of life, the living Bread. Jesus is that essential for life in the Kingdom of God. As we partake of Jesus, the Bread of life, the life of Bread fills us. The question Pastor Phil asked was, "How does the life of Bread become part of us?" We are invited to practice a life of broken bread by engaging in the practices of Christian faith and life. Even in our busy-ness, let us make time for those practices!
