The conclusion was simple: th...
Groundwork of Christian Worship
This book is an attempt to provide a structure for thinking seriously about worship as a part of Christian faith and experience, and of addressing the questions 'What is Christian worship?' and 'Why do Christians worship as they do?' It looks at forms of prayers and structures of time, at the place of music and the arts, at biblical norms and contemporary issues of authority, ecumenism and inter-faith relations. Its deeper object, however, is actually to learn something about the church, and to ask the question 'What can we know about the Christian church by looking at the ways in which it gathers, and has gathered in other times and other places, for prayer?'
