Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The resources in this one-volume library provide a variety of paragraphs and sentences, prayers and calls, and hymn suggestions based on all three Scripture readings for every Sunday of the year. For each Sunday in the lectionary there are: three responsive calls to worship, three collects, three prayers of confession and three sets of hymn suggestions.While most congregations keep the order of worship consistent from week to week, it is important to continually refresh the components and make them relevant to the day's lessons. This book makes it possible to focus worship on the same lesson on which the sermon is based, or it allows emphasis to be placed on one of the lessons the preacher has not chosen to preach about, or portions can be combined from all three to provide a unity in the lessons.
