A Spanish translation of part II of The Biblical Psalms in Christian 91 by John D. Witvliet
A course from this syllabus examines how Christian worship both expresses and shapes our understanding of the life of Jesus Christ, with particular attention given to how celebrations of Advent, Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, Ascension and Pentecost reflect assumptions about the doctrines of incarnation, atonement, and ecclesiology.
This syllabus was for a seminar that explored the nature of “full, conscious, and active participation” in Christian worship and asked what role Christian teaching ministries can play in nurturing it. Seminar discussions focused on both the content of Christian worship and the pedagogical processes best suited to enhance it.
This course provides an introduction to the principles and practices of Christian worship. The course deals with biblical and church-historical perspectives on and practices of worship, particularly those of the Reformed tradition, elements of Christian Reformed Church liturgy including psalmody and hymnody, and contemporary worship styles in different cultural settings.
This syllabus follows a study of the forces and movements that have reshaped patterns of Christian worship in the last 25 years, with a particular focus on the ecumenical liturgical movement that arose out of Vatican II, the charismatic movement, and new models for integrating worship and evangelism.
This is a syllabus for a study of prominent theological writings from the Reformed tradition on nature and purpose of public worship. A course like this might include study of documents by Zwingli, Calvin, Hodge, Nevin, Barth, and von Allmen with an examination of how the enduring themes in these writings might be reflected in the practice of public worship in today’s cultural environment.
