He develops a theology of worship with a clear focus on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ as he explores the meaning of worship, the mystery of Christ, the sacraments, prayer, and preaching. Ultimately, he says, something dynamic happens when a church congregation speaks and acts: it is touched by the sacred, by a very encounter with the living God.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51195913765137,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51195915960593,"sku":"NIN9780802869159","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52475110555921,"sku":"NLS9780802869159","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0802869157.jpg?v=1750979424"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-calvin-institute-of-christian-worship.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
