# Are you eating and drinking the Lord’s Supper this Sunday? Read this book.

The Lord’s Supper is a means of grace, yet it is so often misunderstood by the church of our Lord. In 1854, James Waddel Alexander wrote [*Plain Words to a Young Communicant*](/authors/james-waddel-alexander) (reprinted by Banner of Truth as [*Remember Him*](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0851517900/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=logcollegepre-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=0851517900&linkId=eff9f55fcf33392e307597b1970dbeb7)). These short devotional thoughts on so many aspect of our Lord’s person, work, and sacrament are a wonderful way to prepare your heart to come to the table - or to prepare your children to make a profession of faith and take communion for the first time.
