If Christ is in heaven seated at the right hand of the Father as scripture tells us, how can he be in the bread, let alone live in our hearts? Pr. Craig & Pr. Katie answer the question "Where is Jesus" when we take Holy Communion today. 

Pr. Steve and Pr. Craig talk about how unworthy all of the disciples were to receive the very first Holy Communion, yet Christ still showed them grace and fed them.  How much more will Christ welcome us?
