Emphasis Preaching Journal

Did you remember your anniversary? Do you remember your 21st birthday? For most of us the idea of remembering simply means conjuring up past events and fondly reminiscing about them. But is that what Jesus meant when he said, "Do this in remembrance of me?" On my desk is an old picture of five men. One is seated and the other four are standing around him, each touching one of his shoulders with his hand. The seated man is my grandfather. The four standing men are his younger brothers.
