The Church at Worship series presents case studies of worshiping communities around the world and throughout Christian history, designed to inform and enrich worship practices today. Rather than survey historical developments of worship, this series closely examines worship practices of particular times and places. Each volume includes a map, a timeline, a summary of noteworthy aspects of worship in the relevant time period and region, an anthology of primary sources, and questions for congregational and student study groups.
This inaugural volume uses vivid descriptions of Jerusalem, its history, its people, and its worship practices to set the stage for a rich selection of primary church documents, presenting readers with a vibrant snapshot of the church at Jerusalem in the fourth century.
Some of the primary materials included are:
- Select art, artifacts, and architectural drawings
- Egeria’s Diary: A Pilgrim’s Observations of Jerusalem at Worship
- The lectionary and communion prayer likely used in Jerusalem
- The Liturgy of St. James, historically associated with Jerusalem
- Excerpts from the sermons of Cyril, bishop of Jerusalem
