Ebook
Seasons of Worship: A Spiritual Calendar for the Church Today emphasizes the transformative power of observing the Christian year. It provides an overview of the key components of the Christian year, along with their biblical, historical, and theological foundations. The book offers practical resources to aid in planning, programming, and implementing worship opportunities based on the Christian year, enriching the corporate worship experiences of congregations, and fostering spiritual growth among worshipers.
“Who or what should order our time as Christ’s church? In his new book, Steven Brooks convincingly displays creative, formative, and theologically rich corporate worship practices that inhabit the gospel story amid so many competing stories.”
—Jeremy Perigo, professor of theology and worship arts, Dordt University
“Steven Brooks gives not just a passionate apologetic for following the Christian year as an aid to spiritual formation in worship; but he also provides what he aptly calls a ‘resource guide,’ which is rich in practical helps for fleshing out the events of the liturgical calendar in worship services. Especially helpful are the suggested song lists for each occasion, which wisely include both contemporary and traditional expressions as well as presentational and global options.”
—Ron Man, author of Let Us Draw Near: Biblical Foundations of Worship
