Worship in Conversation

Inviting renowned liturgical scholars, Hwarang Moon urges his readers to learn from a wide range of liturgical perspectives. Asking tailored questions of each of his interviewees, Moon explores the personal liturgical histories and views of eminent scholars in the field. The interview style heightens the book’s personal touch, making it most accessible to read. Come, take your place on the sofa alongside Moon, and learn from the wisdom of some of the greatest liturgical theologians of our time.

~Dr. A.L. Van Ommen, Senior Lecturer in Practical Theology, University of Aberdeen

Hwarang Moon’s book is a gift to anyone beginning the journey into the rich lands of Liturgical Theology and a helpful companion for those who have given their life to exploring the treasures of this discipline. Moon’s dialogues do what the best liturgy always does—they invite us into spaces we long to dwell in and then shoot us out to our own lives in a way that bears witness to the beauties and challenges we’ve encountered therein. Students should encounter this text early, scholars should cite it often, and anyone involved in Christian worship should consider listening in on these conversations for the sake of the church and the life of the world.
