| This book attempts an assessment of the 20th century liturgical movement and the brave but flawed reform to which it gave birth from three converging viewpoints: the historian, the sociologist and the cultural critic, pinpointing the areas that need to be addressed if a more satisfactory liturgical life in Western Catholicism is to be achieved. A timely and important work which is certain to spark much discussion on the need for a critical assessment of liturgical reform. "Written in incredibly scholarly but readable fashion, this 'behind-the-scenes' look at the contemporary liturgy is a must read for any priest, seminarian, church musician, liturgist and anyone who truly loves the worship life of the Church." " Fr. Peter Stravinskas |

| Never in the history of the church has there been a time when God has so urgently stirred the hearts of men to become all He created them to be and accomplish all He created them to accomplish. Never in the history of the church has there been a time when men—believers and unbelievers—have been so confused about who they are and what their purpose is. This book holds a powerful work of healing, of restoration of man to his God-given masculinity, strength, and purpose. Every word pierces the heart and ignites the fires of manhood. As you read, you will feel the gentle yet firm hand of Jesus taking hold of the limitations, bondages, and strongholds that have comprised your graveclothes and locked you in a tomb of unfulfilled desires and frustrated dreams. Like Lazarus, you are now commanded to come forth into the light of all God has planned for you from the foundation of the world. And when you do, you will thrill at the words of your Savior and Lord as He cries, "Loose that man and let him go!" |

| Building on Covenant and Eschatology: The Divine Drama, this volume is part two of a three-part project surveying essential topics of Christian theology through the lens of covenant. In Lord and Servant: A Covenant Christology, Michael Horton explores the topics that are generally grouped under the doctrines of God, humanity, and Christology. Rather than attempt a general systematic theology, Horton revisits these topics at the places where covenant and eschatology offer the most promising insight and where there is the most contemporary interest and debate. |
