2nd Hand - Worship Window Of The Urban Church By Tim Stratford

2nd hand in very good condition. No spine creases. Published by SPCK in 2007

Worship is at the heart of church life. Worship reveals God, declares salvation history, defines God's people and provides a way of prayer. Worship is also the means by which a church grows in knowledge and understanding of the world; a knowledge and understanding forged through spiritual struggle and collective learning.

In bringing together the work and experience of people from many different backgrounds, Tim Stratford seeks to enrich the perception of the urban church and its worship. He and his colleagues set out to distil the nature of worship  and how it reflcts the life of contemporary communities. Worship, Window of the Urban Church also illustrates that profound, life-changing community-altering worship is risky in character; it requires faith, creativity, courage and a sense of adventure.

This timely book provides some valuable insights about worship contributing to the ideas of 'faithful capital' introduced in Faithful Cities, the report of the Commission on Urban Life and Faith

The contributers include Bishop John Austin, Erica Dunmow, Kathy Galloway, Ann Jeffries, Graham Kings, Ann Morisy, John Vincent, Martin Wallace and Mark Waters.
