Produktbeschreibung

Seeking to bridge the distance between scholarship and praxis, to be accessible to both pastoral ministers and academic theologians, this volume is organized according to three categories: liturgical year, Christian initiation, and Eucharist. Within these categories, the contributors are especially attentive to three important aspects of liturgical history: the role that important figures in liturgical history played as liturgical pastorshow liturgical history has been used in shaping contemporary liturgical rites and prayershow liturgical history informs contemporary understandings and beliefs Ultimately, the book pays tribute to Maxwell Johnsons contributions to the life of the church by exploring ways that the study of liturgical history might help the church remain faithful to God and to the sacramental worldview that continues to define and characterize classic Christianity.
