*Reformation Worship* is an invaluable tool for pastors, worship leaders, and anyone interested in seeking to craft public worship services in the great tradition of the early Reformers.
Authors Jonathan Gibson and Mark Earngey help to transform corporate worship by including twenty-six liturgies, along with historical introductions that provide fresh analysis into their origins.
Christians learn to worship from the generations of God's people who have worshipped before them.
We sing psalms, because thousands of years ago, God's people sang them. Five hundred years ago, the leaders of the Reformation transformed Christian worship by encouraging the active participation and understanding of the individual worshiper.
Christian worship today is built on this foundation. Jonathan Gibson and Mark Earngey have made worship from the Reformation era accessible by compiling the most comprehensive collection of liturgies from that era into newly translated modern English from the original German, Dutch, French, Latin, and early English.
The structure of the liturgies, language, and rhythm continue to communicate the gospel in word and sacrament today. They provide a deep sense of God's call to worship and an appreciation for the Reformers as, first and foremost, men who wanted to help God's people worship.
This book will also be of great interest to theological scholars and students who wish to understand early Reformation leaders. A useful tool for individuals, *Reformation Worship* can be used as a powerful devotional to guide daily prayer and reflection.
By providing a connection to Reformation worship, Gibson and Earngey hope their work will inspire readers to experience what John Calvin described as the purpose of all church worship: To what end is the preaching of the Word, the sacraments, the holy congregations themselves, and indeed the whole external government of the church, except that we may be united to God?

Reformation Worship: Select Liturgies From the Past For the Present$99.99
Wow, i got this book as soon as it was available in Australia. It breaks new ground not only in reformation studies but is an awesome look into the way our first generation protestant fathers stuctured and ordered their worship services after breaking from the church of Rome. All the big names both from the Lutheran, Reformed and Anglican tradition are represented as well as the great liturgies from key centres of influence and learning like Wittenberg. Zurich, Geneva, Bern, Strousberg. This will inspire any worship leader today to turn his gaze away from the subjective in worhip and fix his eyes on our Triune God and His objective revelation. For how else can we worship our awesome God other than the way he has made Himself known to us in the Scriptures. Not only does the book provide the litugies of these early reformers but also provides newly never before translations from the original latin of each of their works as it relates to some aspect of worship. Get it, to inspire you and blow your mind!
