This is the all-inclusive, complete and permanent Sunday Missal. It
contains all the official Mass prayers for Sundays and Holydays
that are now in use in America -- including the readings from the
Revised Lectionary for Sunday Mass (cycles A, B, and C). It also
includes Mass themes, biblical commentaries, people's parts in
boldface type, hundreds of illustrations (both in full color and in
black and white), helpful indices, and a Treasury of Prayers.
This is a sequel to two highly successful collections of short
songs ("Come All You People" and "There Is One Among Us") for use
in worship. Here the net is thrown wider with material from
AIDs-ridden communities in the developing world side by side with
recent products from the Wild Goose Resource Group. It is an ideal
collection for small choirs, social justice enthusiasts,
multiculturalists and all who regard themselves a global Christian.

Turley begins by surveying the history of the interface between
ritual studies and Pauline scholarship, identifying the scholarly
gaps in both method and conclusions and a ritual theory adequate to
address such gaps. The focus of the work is then on the two rituals
that identified the Pauline communities: ritual washings and ritual
meals. Turley explores Galatians and 1 Corinthians, two letters
that present the richest spread of evidence pertinent to ritual
theory. By exploring Paul's reference to ritual washings and meals
with a heuristic use of ritual theory, Turley concludes that
rituals in early Christianity were inherently revelatory, in that
they revealed the dawning of the messianic age through the bodies
of the ritual participants. This bodily revelation established both
a distinctly Christian ethic and a distinctly Christian social
space by which such an ethical identity might be identified and
sustained.
