The New Westminster Dictionary Of Liturgy And Worship

The New Westminster Dictionary of Liturgy and Worship

About the Author J. G. Davies is a former Edward Cadbury Professor of Theology at the University of Birmingham, where he also served as Director of the Institute for the Study of Worship and Religious Architecture. This one-volume reference book dramatically illustrates how worship can reflect changing times and yet remain a constant occasion for encounter with the living God. In considering the significant liturgical developments that have occurred during recent years, the dictionary takes into account modifications in both the form and the understanding of worship. This dictionary is of particular value as a convenient reference for teachers and students for use in classes and for pastors and worship committees in churches.
