Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the branch of Christianity known as the Christian or Church Year. The author explores the history and development of the Christian liturgical calendar, tracing its practices back to early Christian ceremonial. Many traditions found in mainstream Christianity can be linked to practices of the pre-Nicene Church and this book shows how these practices tie into current worship patterns. The Christian calendar has two main periods, the book explains. The first period begins with the First Sunday of Advent and ends with Whit-Sunday, or the Feast of Pentecost. The author goes into depth regarding the traditions, scripture, and observances associated with each day, focusing particularly on the moveable feasts. The second period begins at Pentecost and ends with Advent, and is composed of feasts and observances, the central one being All Saints Day. The book is an insightful guide to the richness of the Christian Year and will be a precious reference point for those desiring a deeper understanding of the traditions and worship practices of Christianity.
