What to Expect in Reformed Worship: A Visitor’s Guide

Hyde, Daniel R.

Eugene, OR: Wipf and Stock, 2007

Hyde’s book offers a brief introduction for newcomers to our worship services, explaining why reverence, simplicity, and biblical order are essential in corporate worship. In a clear and pastoral manner, he shows that the focus of worship is Christ, carefully unpacking the liturgy step by step. Worship, he explains, is a covenantal dialogue between God and his people, in which a call to respond in faith is issued in every service. The book is very brief and accessible.
