Communion Alone – Matt Carter

Matt Carter has often said that the one part of worship you cannot do alone is to participate in communion. He may have been wrong … or maybe not.

He shares a communion meditation here that offers encouragement to those of us who find ourselves “alone” on a Sunday morning.

1 Corinthians 10:16-17
