Media Reviews
'Nothing is more central to Christian practice than Holy Communion. Yet, curiously enough, little attempt is made to explain it. So many outside the Christian community are just puzzled by it, and many within the church got to Communion from habit but know very little about how it arose or what it means. This is the ideal book for both types of reader. It is written by one of the foremost New Testament Scholars in the World, who has the enviable ability to write with engaging charm... Best of all Dr Wright has written a book which will speak to all types of Christians and unite them over a subject that so often proves divisive.' Michael Green, Honorary Fellow, Wycliffe Hall, Oxford
