Dynamic Equivalence: The Living Language of Christian Worship (Pueblo Books)

In recent years liturgical Language has become a litmus test for doctrinal orthodoxy. By studying the history of the vernacular in worship beginning with the Christian Scriptures, this book uncovers the power of a living language to transform communities of faith. Particular attention is given to the twentieth-century Vernacular Society in the United States and discussion of the vernacular issues at the Second Vatican Council.
