From the publisher

In From Word to Worship, Anglican pastor and theologian Michael Niebauer unlocks the lectionary's full potential as a vehicle for Christian formation. He traces the church year and its major themes, from Advent to Ordinary Time, showing how the assigned readings are carefully harmonized to magnify Christ, and how the church enacts these readings through its worship, liturgy, and sacramental life.
