Christian theatre has rich roots, from ancient Hebrew dramas to
medieval plays, but where does it fit in today's media-saturated
society?
"Performing the Sacred "is a fascinating dialogue between a
theologian and theatre artist, offering the first full-scale
exploration of theatre and theology. The authors illuminate the
importance of live performance in a virtual world, of preserving
the ancient art form of storytelling by becoming the story.
Theologically, theatre reflects Christianity's central
doctrines--incarnation, community, and presence--enhancing the
human creative experience and simultaneously engaging viewers on
multiple levels.
This Engaging Culture series title will be a key volume for those
interested in theatre as well as drama practitioners, worship
leaders, and culture makers.

What is the place of corporate worship in theological education?
Certainly it is not unexpected to have ministry students attending
seminary chapel, but what are the expectations for the students who
attend chapel? Is it to form their liturgical sensibilities into
conformity with a particular worship tradition or style? Or is it
to provide a safe place to try things that one would be reluctant
to experiment with in congregational worship? Although common
worship for ministry students is almost a given in all theological
schools, there are few common understandings about it goals and
purposes.Common Worship in Theological Education is the first book
to address the theological, pedagogical, and political issues
involved in the planning and execution of seminary chapel. It
offers voices from across the theological and ecumenical spectrum
about chapel, as well as involving multiple disciplines in the
conversation. This volume provides the first comprehensive survey
of the worship issues at stake in seminary education today. The
essays in this collection provide the foundation for a productive
conversation within a seminary faculty or among colleagues within a
theological discipline. This volume makes the case that the chapel
ought to have a seat at the table when the education mission of a
theological school is being discussed. So pull up a chair and
prepare for a fascinating conversation.
