Feasting on the Word is rapidly becoming the lectionary resource of choice for mainline clergy. To aid in renewal, Long and 11 seasoned writers have crafted beautiful weekly prayers and responsive readings, along with a cycle of daily morning and evening prayer for home use. The CD-ROM makes it easy to cut and paste. 480 pages, hardcover. Westminster John Knox.

The Feasting on the Word Worship Companion: Liturgies for Year C, Volume One, is the first of six volumes (two for each lectionary year) in a new series for worship leaders and pastors. Based on the Revised Common Lectionary (RCL), this book is an invaluable aid that provides all liturgical pieces needed in preparing for worship each week. A team of eleven ecumenical and seasoned liturgy writers, under the creative leadership of Kimberly Bracken Long, offer a multitude of poetic prayers and responsive reading for all parts of worship. In addition, drawn from the lectionary each week are a question for reflection and household prayers for morning and evening so churches can include them in their bulletin for parishioners.

During times of the year when two different tracks of Old Testament texts are offered by the RCL, this resource offers an entire set of materials for each track. Also, a CD-ROM is included with each book and easily enables planners to cut and paste relevant readings, prayers, or questions into worship bulletins.

Kimberly Bracken Long is Assistant Professor of Worship and Coordinator of Worship Resources for Congregations at Columbia Theological Seminary. She is the author of The Worshiping Body: The Art of Leading Worship and The Eucharistic Theology of the American Holy Fairs, both published by Westminster John Knox Press.
