This book unpacks the relative ordinariness of the liturgy, the Divine Service, to seek an understanding of how Christ encounters us in the world. The first part follows a fictional couple who attends a service and experiences the love and forgiveness found in Christ. The second part examines the different parts of the service that the couple attends, explaining why the parts of the service do what they do.--Publisher
