The Spirit of Witness: Liturgies, prayers, poems and reflections for dissenters

The term ‘witness’ has become synonymous with evangelism, but true witnessing is usually found in dissenting: it refuses to bow to idols, or to take the easy road, or deny Christ and all he died for. This collection is rooted in that belief that having the mind of Christ means we will do things differently.

If offers practical resources for pastoral care that celebrates people on the margins of the church, and provides liturgies for those who suffer racism or injustice, who experience tragedy and loss, who raise their voices in protest or lament, and more. These texts do not carry the stamp of approval of any church body, but will bring the light of the gospel where it is needed.

Arranged in six sections, it includes contributions from well-known and new voices covering the themes of:

* Witness in Ordinary Time * Communion * Birth and Baptism * United in Love * Suffering Presence * Death and Resurrection
