Book Description

Are you confident in using the varied resources that Common Worship offers, or do you sometimes feel simply baffled by the choices rather than excited by the potential? If the sheer size and complexity of Common Worship is sometimes confusing, then this book for you. This new edition of Mark Earey’s user-friendly and confidence-building guide to the Common Worship library of resources is the ultimate companion for all seeking to ‘grow into the expansive possibilities of preparing and leading good worship’ as Christopher Cocksworth writes in his Foreword. This essential handbook includes: • A simple guide to every Common Worship book - what’s in it and what you might need it for. • Things you can change in liturgy – and things you probably shouldn’t! • Quick Tips that take you straight to the practical things you need to know. • Frequently Asked Questions which tackle some of the most common issues. • A glossary of liturgical terms to help you know your paten from your pall. Now brought fully up to date, this companion includes details of all recent Common Worship publications in print, online and in apps, including new authorized texts in accessible language and for use with children.
