A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Maxwell E. Johnson is professor of liturgy at the University of Notre Dame and a pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. His numerous publications are on the origins and development of early Christian liturgy, including the Rites of Christian Initiation, as well as on current ecumenical liturgical-theological questions. He is the author, co-author, and/or editor of over 19 books and seventy essays, articles, and chapters in books and journals. A member of the North American Academy of Liturgy, Societas Liturgica, and the Society of Oriental Liturgy, he was elected vice-president of the North American Academy of Liturgy in 2013.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Much of the current theology of Baptism focuses on the image of Baptism as dying and rising, as found in Romans, chapter 6. But, other images such as rebirth and adoption also resound in scripture and tradition. As the author proposes, recovering these traditions may suggest other appropriate feasts for the celebration of Baptism, and will deepen the appreciation and understanding of the sacrament itself.
