Do our physical bodies really matter in corporate worship? Isn't our soul the most important part of us? Aren't our bodies, at best, negligible to worship and, at worst, a hindrance? The answer to this last question is categorically no, as Christians have attested throughout history and across the global church. The purpose of the body instead is to offer to God in worship what only it can offer--and what must be offered to God. By drawing on the wisdom of the Bible, church history, and theology, and by taking advantage of the unique insights of the arts and sciences, ethics, and spiritual formation, a respected theologian and pastor argues in this book that there is something for our physical bodies to do that decisively forms Christlikeness in us within the context of corporate worship. What we do with our postures, gestures, and movements in worship matters. How our senses of sight, scent, sound, taste, and touch are involved in worship matters. How our spontaneous and prescriptive activities form us in worship matters. All of it matters to faithful and fulsome worship for the sake of a body that is fully alive in the praise of God.

Worship is natural for humans. We were made to worship; made in the image of God. When God looks at each of us, he longs to see his image reflected in our lives; in our actions and in our attitudes. He reveals his love to us and we answer with a loving response. That's the heart of worship. This material grew out of an idea for a course for aspiring worship leaders among the inmates of one of Her Majesty's Prisons and has expanded to be an in-depth study of how and why we should worship God. This book is written to be accessible by those who are not 'cultural Christians' but who want to be involved in worshipping and leading others in worship. Written from an evangelical and free-church perspective, it does not set out to reflect the practices and traditions of everybody, nor is it an academic study. This book is not a 'how to' guide for worship leaders and musicians, nor is it a devotional guide to selecting songs, prayers and readings. Instead it sets out to be an introduction to the theology of Christian worship.I hope you will find it helpful and inspiring as you seek to serve God.

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters,in view of God's mercy,to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice,holy and pleasing to God -this is your true and proper worship.(Romans 12:1, NIV)Worship is more than just music. It is more than just singing. Worship comes from our hearts, and can be expressed through song, through giving, through serving - there is no limit to how we can express worthiness to our God. Sometimes, the most beautiful praise can come in a moment of silence, or even from a simple gesture. We can use our bodies to offer adoration to the Lord, from simply standing to honor Him, to raising our hands to reach out to Him, to falling on our knees in humility. Here is an invitation to study several different postures of praise, and a call to worship God with everything that we have.

Worship sets an assembly in motion movement towards God in response to God's movement towards humans thus creating a resilient and caring community. Worship as Body Language brings the African community's experience of the body and its gestures together with the Christian liturgy, since worship and social action are closely related. The body language" or gestures of praise, adoration, contemplation, ritual dance, and care of the neighbor are meaningful to the ethnic group; African Christians tune into these body motions to express the one Christian faith. In Worship as Body Language, Father Uzukwu details how patterns of African ritual assemblies and sacred narratives have merged with Jewish, gospel, and early Church traditions to create living Christian communities and liturgies. Using a socio-historical method, this book sheds new light on liturgical action and theology, and suggests more transition rituals. It also provides samples of emergent African Christian liturgies that emphasize intense community participation with appropriate gestures. These local liturgies attest to the patristic principle that different customs actually confirm the unity of our faith in Christ. Scholars teaching and researching the foundations of the liturgy and liturgical inculturation, graduate students, and those organizing workshops on the regional, diocesan, or parish level will find Worship as Body Languagea ready handbook on the liturgy. It is also a useful textbook for introducing college students and seminarians to the anthropological, historical, and theological dimensions of the liturgy. Elochukwu E. Uzukwu, CSSp, ThD, lectures in liturgy and African theology in seminaries and Catholic universities in Nigeria, Congo, Zaire, and France. He is the author of Liturgy: Truly Christian, Truly African,and the editor of Bulletin of Ecumenical Theology. "

Sacramental occasions, or "Holy Fairs," practiced by Scots-Irish Presbyterians in mid-nineteenth-century America were intended to bring conversion to nonbelievers and spiritual renewal to baptized Christians. Kimberly Bracken Long examines the chief texts of American revivalism--sermons, devotional writings, and catechetical materials--to gain insights into the sacramental theology at work in these events, as well as into the nature of revivalism in the American Presbyterian context. She also explores several implications for twenty-first-century Reformed and Presbyterian worship.
