This sweeping overview of liturgical history is useful for both the novice and the expert. Every chapter is carefully written, deeply researched, and cogently synthesized. The organization of material provides readers with a useful framework for further expanding their knowledge. A highly recommended resource for those seeking to grasp not only the multiple origins of Christian worship but also the complexity of traditions as they continue to develop today.

Gerardo Mart , Davidson College; author of Worship across the Racial Divide: Religious Music and the Multiracial Congregation

The second volume of this much-needed series is a lively historical read. It engages the reader in a manner that leads them to know many new things about the ways in which God works through his gathered assemblies and, by so doing, invites the reader to know even more about their ecclesial neighbors. As we receive the witness of those whom God has been shaping through the ages, we are given the gift to hear and see our Christian sisters and brothers, not in competition, or with disdainful theological critique, but as those who live within the splendor of our Lords continual prayer that all may be one. Historical Foundations of Worship will serve the whole oikumen in the way that rocks in a tumbler bring out each others radiance, so that in a unity of spirit, we will seek to join together in the psalmists doxological imperative to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

Amy C. Schifrin , president emeritus, North American Lutheran Seminary

This collection offers an admirable and engaging introduction for the student navigating a way into liturgical studies, and it is a comprehensive guide for anyone responsible for overseeing that journey. The contributors have brought scholarly depth as well as a lively sense of the practice of worship to their readers. They write with animation and understand the virtues of conciseness and reading lists that encourage further study rather than inducing dismay. It is particularly good to see chapters on the Anabaptist, Pentecostal, and evangelical traditions joining the mainstream Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant families in one volume.

Preface

Melanie C. Ross and Mark A. Lamport

T he Worship Foundations textbook series is designed as a set of accessible yet focused studies on theological and historical liturgical themes. Historical Foundations of Worship , the second book in the series, is divided into five parts. Early chapters address liturgical developments all Christians held in common: the source of the stream before the traditions split into separate tributaries. The remaining sections survey Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, and Protestant developments that include Reformation traditions, evangelicalism, and Pentecostalism.

Although each chapter is written by a different author, this volume is united by a cluster of shared themes concerning the historical study of liturgy. The first is a word of caution against a call for repristination: the return to some perceived earlier historical ideal. Liturgical rites and practices of earlier centuries may provide sources for inspiration, but there is no golden age that can be revived for the present, notes Bryan Spinks. And L. Edward Phillips concurs: while it may be appropriate to look to the early church for inspiration, we must avoid assigning too much authority to an ancient practice simply because it is ancient. The reason for this, he explains, is that the truth is always messy and diverse. Even though we claim to be the early Christians spiritual descendants, we are separated from the early Christians by time and culture, trying to make sense of the reports of witnesses that we only partly understand.
