"These collected essays represent Liturgical Theology at its finest: both beholding and supporting worship that is centered in the gift of God; both finding and shaping worship that witnesses to the inclusivity and public service of that gift. Stephen Burns's own clear reflections are in a gracious conversation with a great company of people, and the conversation is recorded here, to our great gain. Burns accurately represents, deeply appreciates and sometimes very gently corrects his conversation partners. The book is particularly Australian, yet widely global; critically learned, yet warmly accessible; about pastors, yet about us all. This is wise and needed writing." -- Gordon W. Lathrop, Professor of Liturgy Emeritus, Philadelphia, Pres. Societas Liturgica "Contemporary thinking about worship and ministry at its very best. Highly recommended" -- Teresa Berger, Professor of Liturgical Studies, Yale Divinity School "Seeing a good Anglican scholar working in a Uniting Church context opens stimulating new ideas for contemporary Catholics." - Tom Elich, Liturgical Commission, Archdiocese Brisbane
