Evangelical Versus Liturgical?: Defying a Dichotomy (Calvin Institute of Christian Worship Liturgical Studies)

Is there really a deep dichotomy between evangelical and liturgical churches? In this book Melanie Ross draws on historical analysis, systematic theology, and the worship life of two vibrant congregations to argue that the common ground shared by evangelical and liturgical churches is more important than the differences that divide them. A longtime evangelical church member who also teaches liturgical studies, Ross is in a prime position to address the subject, and she does so with passion and intelligence. Evangelical versus Liturgical? is an important addition to the scant literature explaining nondenominational worship practices to those from more historically established liturgical traditions.
