Description

Every week, millions of Christians across the world hear Scripture read from the lectionary. They are exposed to the content of the Bible through assigned weekly readings from the Old Testament, the Psalms, the Gospels, and the remainder of the New Testament. These readings affirm that Christ is the center--the one who holds all things together. But it's not always obvious how these texts relate to one another.

In From Word to Worship, Michael Niebauer unlocks the potential of the lectionary to help Christians be transformed by Scripture. He traces the church year and its major themes, showing how the lectionary's assigned readings harmonize with one another to magnify Christ and how the church enacts these readings in its worship and liturgy. From Word to Worship is an ideal aid for preachers who want to capture the riches of the lectionary and any believer interested in holistic and ancient interpretation of Scripture.
