Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Worship for Non-Liturgical Churches The book has not been made: it has grown, and so it is sent forth in the hope of life. It has grown from the writer's own need, in the effort to seek guidance and inspiration in the most important and difficult ministry to other lives. It has grown from the attempts to help young men weigh the meaning of words and acts of worship; to interpret aright the difficulty and the dignity and the worth of their spiritual leadership. It has grown from an increasing sense of the need of the age to deepen its devotional life, to be cured of glibness and flippancy, to be taught how to reverence and adore and praise. There are many admirable books on the special phrases or parts of worship; there are almost none on worship as a whole, viewed in the light of present conditions and with practical suggestions for its conduct and development. And so the book is sent forth in the hope that it may serve the ministry of the non-liturgical churches, especially the young men who stand upon the threshold of their work with such trembling and yet with such praise.
