Holy People by Gordon W Lathrop

This title is now in paperback (HB published 1999). It shows how worship activities define the concept church. It explores: the meaning of the term church; the relationship of the local liturgical assembly and other Christian assemblies; the personal and communal charter of the liturgical assembly; and the critical principles of liturgy and culture. It focuses on community and assembly to discuss the sacraments. It is written by a leading scholar in worship and liturgy.
