My question for tomorrow's discussion is one that Peterson himself raises:
"Since the celebration of the Lord's Supper in contemporary churches is now almost always separated from a communal meal, it is important to consider what has been lost by this development. How can we modify the way in which we have the Lord's Supper to give greater expression to the fact that we meet as the body of Christ? If the structures of our church life make it impossible to celebrate the Lord's Supper in the context of a real meal, are there other ways to encourage God's people to eat together and minister to one another in the relaxed atmosphere of table-fellowship?"
