Over all I was really hoping for something great out of this book. I had never thought of Communion as a Spiritual practice, so I was interested to hear what Nora Gallagher was going to say. Unfortunately this book was a disappointment. While there were a few new insights that will enhance my participation in the Lord's Supper in the future, most of the book was lacking in any depth. Perhaps most frustrating to me was her side comment that she supports an open table, but then failed to offer any theological or scriptural support for her position. So far of all the books I have read in this series this was my least favorite. I have to seriously wonder if Nora was the best choice for this book. Surely there is someone else who could have had more theological, and biblical insight into this ancient practice. Instead all we are left with is a few reflections that feel weak and aren't really worth reading.
