Encounter with God is an introduction to the study of Christian worship. It is ecumenically-based, emphasises the complementarity of Word and Sacrament and the unity of theology and practice, and considers the place of worship in the modern age. The three authors have brought together their different backgrounds and experiences and have provided a much-needed introductory text. Encounter with God is specially designed for those, of various traditions, who are preparing for the ministry or who participate regularly in worship and wish to deepen their understanding, and for students of theology and religion enquiring into the nature of Christian worship.
