Episode Description
That we are fed by the Body and Blood of Christ in the Sacrament of Holy Communion is one of the greatest gifts ever bestowed upon mankind by our Creator. This food was prefigured in the desert when the Hebrews were given manna to eat, but they were not always appreciative of so great a gift… nor are we! Unlike the manna which nourished only fleeting, human life, the Bread of Life prepares and nourishes us for eternal life. Saint Paul reminds us that – because we all partake of the One Bread – we are all part of the One Body of Christ. So, why don’t we act like it?
