Presbyterian worship is known for its balance between form and freedom, seeking to be faithful to the leading of God�s Word and open to the movement of God�s spirit. For those who plan, lead, and participate in worship, living within this tension can be a creative challenge, one that poses many questions for our liturgical theology and practice.
Presbyterian Worship Questions and Answers draws on the author�s scholarly insights, pastoral instincts, and decade of experience in the Presbyterian denomination�s Office of Theology and Worship to provide accessible answers to the questions people frequently ask about Presbyterian worship along with a few we ought to ask more frequently. From the philosophical�What is worship and what does it have to do with real life?�to the practical�Why is there a pink candle and when do we light it?�Presbyterian Worship Questions and Answers seeks to shed new light on the meaning and mystery of worship in the Reformed tradition.
