Lent Course 2006: The People of God: “Unit Three - Lay presidency at the Eucharist”
How important is this issue? How are we to understand the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist which is so central to the lives of many of us? What happens at the Eucharist? Is what happens so important that it requires the active presence of a priest? How does this fit in with St. Peter's idea that we are all members of the "Royal Priesthood" (1 Peter 2:1-10)?

Humility means putting ourselves in a right relationship with God, recognising we can do nothing of ourselves; Judas got his relationship with Jesus out of proportion.

Judas and Victorian Triumphalism
Judas had earthly ambitions for Jesus; do not we also hanker after the apparent Church glory of the Victorian era; perhaps we are now in need of going back to a 1st Century mind-set.
