    About this ebook

    Do you wonder why Christians take communion?  Has the Lord's Supper become a thing you do but don't understand?  Discover what this simple rite means and move beyond empty ritual to a celebration of love and redemption.

    Author and Bible teacher Dennis Stevenson returns to the familiar scriptures and reads them in the light of ancient Jewish traditions. His insight sheds fresh light on the practice of communion and reveals the meaning of the bread and cup.

    In this book, you'll discover the powerful story of redemption that Jesus gave us in the Lord's Supper.  Find fresh spiritual encouragement and strengthen your faith every time you take communion.  When you eat the bread and drink the cup, you'll look back on the price He paid and remember how much He loves you.

    In As Often As You Do It, you will find:

    • The powerful emotions behind Jesus' command, "Remember Me every time you do this."
    • Why the disciples didn't understand Jesus' words until much later.
    • The special bread Jesus used during the last supper to represent His body.
    • The ancient name of the cup Jesus selected to commemorate His blood.
    • A vital connection to Jesus' love every time you celebrate Communion.


    As Often As You Do It makes the Lord's Supper come alive with meaning and emotion.  If you want to gain a deeper grasp of Jesus' words, transform the way you observe communion, and grow closer to your Savior then you'll love Dennis Stevenson's fresh insights into this Christian practice.

    Hi, I'm Dennis! I write books for everyday Christians who want to build their faith. I believe that you can have a rich and rewarding spiritual life - even if you didn't go to seminary, or learn how to read Greek and Hebrew. The tools of the Christian faith don't have to be a mystery. That's where I want to help. I write books that cut through the confusing terms and present spiritual truth in everyday language. I'll show you how to get the most out of your Christian life with the tools and knowledge you already have. I'll break it down until it makes sense and you can do it for yourself. You can think of me as your personal guide on your spiritual journey. I grew up in a pastor's home. Some nights, the dinner table felt like a seminary classroom. But the result was that I was given a deep love of God and the Bible from a very early age. As an adult, I built on that foundation by pursuing learning and study on my own. I still haven't gone to seminary, I don't think that's necessary to pursue God. I have impressed God's word on my heart and made it central in my life. I've been studying the Bible myself for over 30 years. For more than 20 of those years I've been teaching others what I know. This experience, both of study and teaching, has shown me what everyday Christians want to know, and how they like to learn it. As an author, my purpose is to capture what I know and give it to you. When I left home for college, my dad gave me 2 books which have been profoundly influential in my own ongoing development. The first was Decision Making and the Will of God by Gary Friesen. This book has given me a degree of freedom from worry and stress that is wonderful. The second book was Independent Bible Study by Irving R. Jensen. It showed me a great way to study the Bible and learn the truth of what it has to say. Even to this day, I use this method in my own studies. I look forward to sharing journeys together. I hope you find my books encouraging and helpful. Dennis
