This unique textbook not only lays out the religious-studies frameworkof a contemporary understanding of worship, it also offers a fullhistory of Christian worship in each historical period, including theAmerican experience. In light of this history of experiences, Ramshawfinally addresses ongoing issues in our understanding of ChristianWorship (gender, authority, ethics, skepticism) and places them intoan explicitly cross-religious framework with Islam, Judaism, and otherreligions. Gail Ramshaw is one of today's most important and influential thinkersabout liturgy, is also a dedicated college professor with a keen sensefor how to approach the full array of Christian worship experience inlight of the contemporary study of religion.
