Rediscovering the Christian Feasts: A Study in the Services of the Christian Year (Book)

Description

We are living in a time when worship has become a distinct priority for the Christian community. For years the church has emphasized evangelism, teaching, fellowship, missions, and service while neglecting the very source of its power -- worship. Recently, however, many churches are experiencing a Spirit-led renewal in their understanding and practice of the praise and worship of God.

Rediscovering the Christian Feasts, a course for small-group or individual study, consists of thirteen easy-to-understand sessions. Part One: The Cycle of Light, studies Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany. Part Two: The Cycle of Life, offers sessions on Lent, Ash Wednesday, Holy Week, Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, the Great Paschal Vigil, and Easter. Part Three: Pentecost and After, explores ordinary time.
