Eerdmans Publishing Company,2015.©20151 online resource (145 pages)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-8028-7249-2 Includes bibliographical referencesThe project: liturgical theology -- God as worthy of worship -- God as one who is vulnerable -- God as one who participates in mutual address -- God as one who listens -- What are we saying when we say that God listens? -- God as one who hears favorably -- God as one who speaks -- The understanding of God implicit in the Eucharist.In The God We Worship Nicholas Wolterstorff takes a ground-up approach to liturgical theology, examining the oft-hidden implications of traditional elements of liturgy. Given that “no liturgy has ever been composed from scratch,” Wolterstorff argues that the assumptions taken into worship are key to perceiving the real depths of historical Christianity's understanding of God.Across the liturgies of the Orthodox, Catholic, Episcopal, Lutheran, and Reformed churches, Wolterstorff highlights theologically neglected elements of God, such as an implicit liturgical understanding of God as listener. A dissection of liturgy is not only interesting, Wolterstorff argues, but crucial for reconciling differences between the God studied by theologians and the God worshiped by churchgoers on Sunday.God (Christianity)Worship and loveGod (Christianity)Worship and love.231Wolterstorff Nicholas260402MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910821434303321The God we worship3952805UNINA
