Communion: Passion, Pain, and Promise

Max Lucado tells about sharing communion as a boy and what it means to us now -- more than symbol, it's sacrament, a holy time of anticipation.

Joy Comes Because Jesus Comes

Max Lucado reminds us that Jesus appeared to Mary and what this exchange means to all of us.
