I think any layperson with an interest in comparing various views of the Lord's Supper without having to read 5 systematic theology texts will be well served by this book.--InternetMonk.com, September 3, 2008 I wish I had had this book years ago when I moderated a wide-spred e-mail discussion group that focused on the meaning of Holy Communion. . . . In the end, it makes for an insightful look into a major sacrament that has divided Christianity for centuries. This would be a great study book for church groups.--Bill Tammeus, Faith Matter (billtammeus.typepad.com), August 23, 2008 The Lord's Supper: Five Views contains a wealth of important information, especially in regards to the history of each position.--Trevin Wax, Kingdom People (trevinwax.com), November 13, 2008 What this volume does well is to show how within each tradition there is real overlap and points for conversation. This is a great introductory volume.--Kyle Strobel, Theology Forum (theologyforum.wordpress.com), December 17, 2008
