Trace the roots of the Divine Service from the Old Testament to Lutheran churches today.
In this collection of essays from Thomas M. Winger, originally published in Lutheran Service Book: Companion to the Services, learn how the Divine Service is seen in the Bible and carried out throughout history into modern-day services. Discover how important periods in history—The Constantinian Revolution, The Reformation, The Post-Reformation Roman Rite—have changed and developed the Divine Service throughout the years.
Spend time deepening your research through 12 different appendices and footnotes meant to clarify Winger’s historical documentation. Additionally, the second half of this book, titled “The Liturgy: Lutheran Confessional Theology, Presuppositions, and Definitions,” gives you more information on the Lutheran theology behind the liturgy, faith and worship, and the Sacrament.
