Christopher Hall invites us to accompany the fathers as they enter
the sanctuary for worship and the chapel for prayer. He also takes
us to the wilderness, where we learn from the early monastics as
they draw close to God in their solitary discipline. The focus of
this book is not liturgy but more broadly worship in its corporate
and individual dimensions. We enter into the patristic
understanding of baptism and the Eucharist. And we come under the
instruction and discipline of great spiritual teachers of prayer.
In two previous books, Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers
and Learning Theology with the Church Fathers, Christopher Hall has
ushered us alongside the church fathers as they study the
Scriptures and plumb the depths of theology. In this survey of the
spiritual life of worship he informs and challenges Christians in
faithful living today. Hall weaves his own experiences into his
observations of the fathers' practices and teachings and so helps
us close the gap of the centuries. Readers will enjoy a rich and
rare schooling in developing their spiritual life.
