This was quite lovely. I have been disapointed in my church's communion service, it appears to be done by rote, the same verses read once a month with no vitality or appreciation for what's happening. It's possible that the fault for that is mine. This was a beautiful reminder of what all is entailed by partaking of the Lord's feast.
From the notes, I have gotten a list of other books on the subject I'm interested in reading on this subject as well.

A great 40 pages booklet!

Benefits of the Lord Supper would be a better title though, because it kind of explain more the benefits than the ways to benefit from it. For the better exposition of the latter, I would highly recommend Brakel instead.

Of some help and interest - would have liked it to be expanded a bit more.
