Lifting Hearts to the Lord: Worship with John Calvin in Sixteenth-Century Geneva (Karin Maag)

Abstract

In Lifting Hearts to the Lord: Worship with John Calvin in Sixteenth-Century Geneva, Karin Maag, director of the Henry Meeter Center for Calvin Studies, addresses ways in which the sixteenth-century Protestant reformer from Geneva can speak to Christians in all cultures regarding their cultural and musical choices for worship. The book is part of a series that uses case studies to discuss the history of Christian worship. This volume explores Calvin’s teachings on worship, regularly quoting long sections from Calvin’s primary materials, with commentary and thoughtful questions in the margin.
