Author Description

This major bibliography reflects both recent ecumenical trends and a renewed interest in liturgy and worship in all churches. The bibliography deals extensively with major foci of Christian worship: Initiation, Eucharist, Ordination, Marriage, Reconciliation, Ministry to the Sick and Dying, Burial, the Daily Office, and the Calendar. Conceived historically, its major presentation is by church family. Concluding sections deal with worship and the arts, and church music and hymnology. The compilers, liturgical scholars in New Jersey and New York, represent the major Christian traditions.
