Hermeneutics

Hosted ByDr. Johanna Hartelius

Three friends talking about the Gospel of John.

Episode 2 – Anamnesis

“And so in remembrance of these your mighty acts in Jesus Christ, we offer ourselves…” In the Eucharist we remember so that the past might be made present that we might be consumed by what we consume in order that we become what we eat. In other words, this word: anamnesis.
