Conference Worship Services - Calvin Symposium On Worship And The Arts, Calvin Institute Of Christian Worship

Symposium on Worship Archive

Booklet including outlines for four worship services held during the 2003 Calvin Symposium on Worship. The four services are based on the two central claims found in Joel 2: a call to repentance and the promise of the Spirit. The first claim, "rend your hearts and not your garments," has been the church's traditional call to Lenten repentance. The second, "I will pour out my Spirit," has been the church's traditional reading for Pentecost. The life of faith is anchored by both this challenge and this promise, never one without the other.
