What others are saying about this book:
"Few people realize the rich history and theology behind our Lord’s Supper Form. Because it’s so familiar to us, it’s easy to let its beautiful phraseology drift by our hearts and minds. That would be a real shame because the Form can really enhance the strengthening of our faith at this sacrament. This commentary will help Reformed believers appreciate what we have in this liturgical text...[This book] is unique in our literature. We can be thankful the [RFPA] has published it in English." - Wes Bredenhof
