Liturgy

The SCM Studyguide to Liturgy is an introduction to liturgy that considers the basic 'building blocks' needed to grasp the subject area. It outlines the essential shape and content of Christian worship and explores a range of liturgical dynamics of which both students of liturgy and leaders of liturgy need to be aware. The book is designed as an introductory resource for the study of liturgy at level one in theological colleges and university courses, and will also be use to local preachers, readers, local ministry teams and clergy wanting to look afresh at liturgy as they employ the recently revised rites of their tradition. It includes sections on scripture and sacrament, space and symbol, music and song, discipleship and learning as well as style and substance, cycles and crises, the fullness of life and nurturing the Christian community.
