Synopsis

Here, briefly defined and described in one volume, are nearly three-and-a-half thousand terms and names from the history, the teachings, and the liturgy of the church. The dictionary includes: terms and names that are difficult to find in standard dictionaries; brief definitions and descriptions for quick reference; names and terms from the history of the church in its various expressions; concepts and terms related to the teachings of the church; and terms connected with the Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Orthodox liturgies. An indispensable reference work for anyone who wants quick access to information that is sometimes difficult to find, even in a well-stocked library--laypersons, students, pastors, and teachers.
