Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. While many histories of Christian worship exist, this project undertakes a task both more focused and more urgent. Rather than survey the whole history of the Christian church, it focuses on the formative period between the first and fifth centuries CE, when so many of the understandings and patterns of Christian worship came to be. And rather than include such developments as the monastic hours of prayer and the history of ordination, the authors deal primarily with those aspects of worship that recur on a weekly or regular basis: preaching, Eucharist, and baptism. The book divides its subject into three period. It begins with the emerging worship of the New Testament era. It moves to the second and third centuries, when the churchs main tasks of establishing its identity in relation to its Jewish roots and making its way in a hostile Roman environment showed up in its theology and practice of worship. And it concludes with the fourth and fifth centuries, when introducing the increasing numbers of converts after Constantine to Christian faith became one of the highest priorities of the churchs worship. This resource will serve as a valuable guide to the historical developments that brought about Christian worship as we know it today. "Written for students in introduction to worship and church history classes, this resource will serve as a valuable guide to the historical developments that brought about Christian worship as we know it today"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback --- SUMMARY Ronald Knox occupies a conspicuous role in English religious, cultural and literary history, and he was also one of the leading lights of the English "Catholic revival" of the first half of the twentieth century. This collection of essays examines his many interests, setting them in their historical context. It discusses the profound effect that the Great War had on his religious life, his engagement with Benedictine spirituality, the distinctive characteristics of his apologetics and preaching, and his engagement with a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. In so doing, it illuminates aspects of his life, as well as the circumstances of his several pastoral ministries, that have been neglected. Like Thomas More, whom Erasmus famously dubbed "a man for all seasons for all men," Ronald Knox was a man of many talents. He was a classicist, writer of fiction, translator, theologian, essayist, journalist, historian, preacher and spiritual guide. His aptitude for writing in a variety of literary genres was evident from an early age. This volume addresses Knox's original contribution to each area of his interests, literary as well as theological. It illustrates his insights into Virgil's Aeneid, explains the value of his fiction and discusses the merits of his translation of the Bible. It also looks into Knox's deep understanding of the liturgy and the reasons why his spirituality had and continues to have such a strong appeal. Finally, it suggests that many aspects of his theology and his use of humour and satire remain pertinent today. The volume includes a selection of Knox's unpublished writings, as well as published ones that are now difficult to trace.
