How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsOutstanding Read
Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2020
Simple, conscience, historically accurate. Read it in an hour, and digest it for days. I highly recommend this book for all who wonder about why we celebrate Holy Communion, and all who want to experience Jesus more as they celebrate the Sacrament.

3.0 out of 5 starsNot one of his better books
Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2017
I have read most of his academic books and most are excellent. This book, however seems aimed at a boarder audience. Unfortunately in doing so it is too short, too shallow and too simplified. Each area he covered should have been explored with more depth. The discussion questions were helpful.

A good concise history of the Lord's Supper. N.T. Wright does well to show in a creative and clear way the meaning, message and methods of the celebration of Communion. A good book to give someone curious about this Supper that so marks out the Christian church throughout the ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction to a deep subject
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2019

While obviously too brief to contain a full scholarly dissection of what Wright calls the “Jesus-meal” and all the theology & theories connected to it, this book is an excellent read for the average Christian looking for a starting point to grow in their understanding or to experience communion more richly.

This book brought out things I had never thought about communion, such as it takes you to the past, present, and future simultaneously. The last chapter where he writes about children and communion is outstanding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable theological and historical introduction to communion
Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2019

I loved how Wright wove the entire story of God through the book. Beginning with creation and the Old Testament as a whole, Wright instructs us on the past, present, and future realities of the Eucharist. My only disappointment was that the book wasn't longer.

This is like a children’s book. Nothing much to learn but simple Bible stories. Something you can suggest to parents with young children or probably a new believer.

N.T. Wright lays a solid foundation for understanding, leading,and participating in this essential act of worship. It is short but complete, readable but also profound. It would be an excellent resource for new pastors and new members of any church.

A wonderful resource for new and seasoned believers alike. Wright, in his down to earth style, builds bridges with various denominations as he describes the Jesus Meal in an accessible and open manner. A must read!

N.T.Wright is one of the best christian writers. This is a good analysis of the communion or eucharist and its meaning in christian life. I don't agree with everything he says but I do like his writing & analysis. RAG
