Lutheran Service Book: Companion to the Services
Discover the rich and complex history of Lutheran Service Book through numerous essays dedicated to the services portion of LSB.
Historical. Theological. Practical.
There’s a lot to learn about the services portion of Lutheran Service Book. So much history has been given to us in these rites and ceremonies, and so much of it is waiting for you to uncover in Companion to the Services. As a sister book to Companion to the Hymns, this will give you a comprehensive explanation for leading the service, liturgical colors, paraments, vestments, and so much more.
You can dive into the Divine Service in wonderful detail as it's examined historically and theologically. See how the Church Year fits into the ceremony of the services and unpack how it was originally created. Take your learning further with appendixes and an entire chapter dedicated to additional resources for pastors and worship leaders.
Additionally, each topic of examination has been broken down into four portions— Historical Development, Theological Considerations, Planning the Service, and For the Presider—giving you a well-rounded understanding of each subject. Originally known as the LSB: Desk Edition, the Companion to the Services is a necessity for any pastor's collection.
