What is the right way to worship?
Right worship does not require a return to the identical forms found in the early church or later in Rome or after that in Westminster. What it calls for is a faithful response today to the God of our salvation in light of those biblically ordered and historically informed patterns.
In this study Robbie Castleman uncovers the fundamental shape of worship. What she finds-outlined in Scripture, enacted in Israel, refocused in the New Testament community, guarded by the apostolic fathers, and recovered in the Reformation - is a grand narrative of redemption offering order and meaning to all worshiping communities down to the present day.
Commendations
'Evangelicals need to recover a theology of presence in their public worship today. Robbie Castleman encourages us to do exactly that by presenting here a richly textured and nuanced study of how liturgy interacts with spiritual life, all framed in the context of how the church has remembered and recited the story of Jesus as the story of Israel's God. A book of biblical wisdom and theological depth.'
- Timothy George, founding dean, Beeson Divinity School of Samford University, and general editor of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture
