Summary |
Develops the claim that sacramental and liturgical practices are central means by which a Church shapes the faith, character and consciousness of its members. Explores the relationship between worship and belief, the relationship between corporate worship and the formation of Christian persons and communities within ecclesial tradition, and the relationship between worship and our knowledge of ourselves, our world and God. Argues that attention to the reform and renewal of worship and sacramental practice provides a framework for the theological, evangelical and sacramental renewal of mainline Protestant Churches. |
