Gathered Guests: A Guide to Worship in the Lutheran Church
What is worship? This practical guide gives the biblical and theological answer.
In this survey of worship in the Lutheran tradition, Maschke take his cue from Luther's maxim that God gathers people into the church, and as gathered guests, we come to His house to receive His blessing, to pray, praise, and give thanks.
In worship, the author argues that life, liturgy, and theology intersect in remarkable and rich ways, and this gathering around Word and Sacrament both creates and defines a genuine evangelical style of worship.
