Liturgy for the Whole Church
Church Publishing Inc (Verlag)
978-0-89869-602-8 (ISBN)
This fresh collection of group readings and simple dramas based on stories from Scripture, together with meditations, story-telling methodology and an instructed Eucharist, will help church leaders design liturgy for children and grownups who worship together.
1. Introductory Material: practical background and instruction about organizing and arranging intergenerational worship, with special emphasis on children's needs.
2. Seasonal Introductions: Themes and ideas for each liturgical season including collects, confessions, etc.
3. Congregational Readings: simple group readings of Scripture that engage both reader and people.
4. Meditations: Quiet, imaginative reflections on scripture, or water, or fire, that lead listeners deep inside themselves, even at worship.
5. Simple Dramas: Biblical stories in which characters speak for themselves (martha and Mar, Mary and Elizabeth, Elijah and Elisha, etc.) to the worshipers; some are quite playful and some are more serious.
6. Stories: biblical stories told very colorfully and simply, sometimes in the first person of a character in the story.
7. Simple Sermons: simple, colorful, soulful, short sermons that even grownups can sit still for.
8. Tableauxs Vivants: "Living Pictures"- how to do them, and several pieces written and staged.
9 Appendices: Methods of storytelling and An instructed Eucharist
