About this title

Synopsis

This book provides guidelines and resources for homilies and sermons, worship planning, and Scripture study based on the texts in Year A (Cycle A) in The Revised Common Lectionary: Consultation on Common Texts (Nashville: Abingdon, 1992). It is a thoroughly revised and updated replacement for Norman A. Beck, Scripture Notes for Series A (Lima, Ohio: CSS Publishing, 1986). Leaders in worship and worship planning and other members of Christian congregations and communities will find this book to be helpful for use as individuals and in study groups as they prepare for more meaningful worship services each weekend.
