This book offers a fresh perspective on Karl Barth's doctrine of the Eucharist. Drawing carefully on some of the latest work in Barth studies, it constructs a creative account of the Lord's Supper which captures both the central insights of his theological ethics and the unrealised potential of his theological ontology. The result is a powerful demonstration of both the profound resources present in Barth's sacramental theology and the ecumenical possibilities that it has to offer.

The first section of the book thinks with Barth in exploring the development of his understanding of the Eucharist over the course of his career. In the second section, a creative attempt is made to think after Barth, by constructing an original account of the Eucharist that is true to the insights of Barth's mature work - including his completed work on baptism and his last utterances on the Eucharist. A short conclusion considers this account of the Eucharist in ecumenical perspective.
