To prepare us for communion, I’m telling a story this Sunday as part of the joint assembly. The story is based on the accusation levelled against the early church regarding cannibalism. Her neighbors didn’t know what to make of Christians eating the body and drinking the blood of someone. My story is about a guy who hears the rumor and decides to investigate by attending an early Christian assembly. What he finds there obviously isn’t cannibalism, but it is disturbing and perplexing nonetheless.
