Jesus is the Bread of Life. These words aren’t new, but they are often overlooked. What did Jesus mean when he instructed his followers to “eat of his flesh and drink of his blood?” We know that he was referring to the Lord’s Supper, but this particularly graphic phrase has been troubling the Christian world for centuries. For some it is offensive. For others it is symbolic. Today Pastor Janine Olson looks at the reality of these words for our life today.

Texts:
Ephesians 5:15-20
John 6:51-58
