God's Good Earth in Crisis

Liturgies of Lament

About this book

Liturgy at its best has the power to transform the community of the faithful. The liturgies in this book focus on lament, especially the lament experienced by communities of people facing environmental degradation and loss. It is often observed that lament has dropped out of much Christian worship in favor of praise and thanksgiving, yet the honest emotion voiced in such prayer remains an essential component of authentic, transformative engagement with God. Each liturgy is a complete service of worship based on a specific theme and may also be used as an anthology of prayers and litanies. God's Good Earth in Crisis is offered in the conviction that worship is the most powerful means the Holy Spirit uses to equip us to live faithful lives serving God and caring for God's holy people and sacred earth.
