The most impressive thing about Wayne Kellers body of ideas for worship through the Christian Year is his boldness. He is bold in demanding that we, his colleagues in liturgical leadership, plan worship which has to do with the reality of our congregations experience in the world, rather than just lead people through a proper agenda of acts and words that have no bearing on what we do the rest of the week. He is bold in challenging us to bring that real world -- with its pains and its pleasures, its hungers and its feasts, its beauty and its ugliness -- to exposure before the living God. And he is bold in helping us shine the strong, exposing light of the transforming word on our real lives and on that real world, so that we may move beyond planning worship as a nice, safe, feel-good routine from which we depart the same people we were when we arrived. We are thrilled by the seriousness and authentic reverence with which this author approaches the planning of worship. Thank God for Wayne Keller and for his deep respect for the central act of the Christian community: the blessed and life-transforming experience of the worship of God.Richard Avery and Donald MarshPort Jervis, New York[Wayne Kellers] method creates not only a contemporary appeal, but effects a congregational involvement so necessary today within the liturgical context.
