The word liturgy is packed with power. For some, it evokes the
grandeur and mystery of the church's rich tradition. For others it
evokes a rigid and confusing form of obsolete practice. Dan
Benedict provides us with a deeper and more satisfying way to
understand liturgy and to discuss issues related to worship. In his
understanding, readers come to see liturgy as God's means of
uniting with the heart, mind, and work of Christ. Liturgy, Benedict
says, carries us into the presence of the holy in the same way that
those friends in the Gospel story carried their paralyzed friend
into the presence of Christ. When our spiritual life is dry and we
have difficulty experiencing that presence, liturgy holds that
meaning for us until we are ready to return. Liturgy connects us
with the communion of the saints and allows us to worship with
other believers across time and place. Over time, given faithful
participation, the liturgy works to shape our perceptions and
create more space for God's grace to find expression. This volume,
with original prayers and reflection questions, is an excellent
text for a new members' studying worship, or for a congregation's
worship committee to read as a preparation for its work. Topics
include corporate liturgical practices like Baptism, Communion, and
the Christian year, as well as personal practices of daily prayer
and scriptural reading.
