A valuable resource for enhancing liturgical understanding.
What is the point of the Lectionary? What are the problems and opportunities that it presents to those who use it? What are its strengths and weaknesses as an aid to worship? How can it be used and communicated most effectively today? These are among the key questions Thomas O'Loughlin addresses in this stimulating and much needed liturgical guide to the design, history, theology, and purposes of the Lectionary.
Thomas O'Loughlin is professor of Historical Theology at the University of Nottingham (UK). He has authored books for Darton Longman Todd, Paulist, Continuum, SPCK, Hendrickson, and Columba.
“This book is an essential guide for all preachers, teachers, and worship planners who use the Revised Common Lectionary, or for those who are even curious about it. Thomas O'Loughlin is a knowledgeable and wise guide to the design, history, theology, and purposes of the lectionary.”—Rev. Dr. Thomas G. Long, Candler School of Theology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia
