Restore Me includes a large collection of Lent and Easter season worship resources created to draw congregations into closer relationship with God. Specific chapters for both Lent and Easter include:

• Calls to worship
  
• Common prayers
  
• Prayers of dedication
  
• Benedictions
  
• Prayers of confession and pardon
  
• Gospel dialogues

These resources grew out of my continued interest in the whole use of scripture in weekly worship, Craig M. Sweet writes. The dialogue use of scripture adds an extra dimension to the ‘dramaturgical’ experience of worship.

In the gospel dialogue section are scripture readings based upon various lectionary texts. Dialogues are offered for Ash Wednesday, the Sundays of Lent, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter.

Craig M. Sweet is pastor of the Cuba (Illinois) United Methodist Church. He is a graduate of the University of the Pacific and received a master’s of divinity degree from The Theological School at Drew University, Madison, New Jersey.
