In To God Alone Be Glory, the fruit of extensive study and research, Harold Daniels tells the fascinating story of the history of Reformed worship in America, from the 1600s to the present. He describes the development and objectives of the Book of Common Worship and explores how the book itself serves as an agenda for liturgical reform within the church. In a substantive second part of the book, Daniels provides the sources of the prayers and other materials used in the Book of Common Worship. Persons involved in planning, presenting, studying, or teaching about Presbyterian worship will benefit greatly from having a copy of this comprehensive resource in their personal library.
Harold M. Daniels was for many years the Director of the Joint Office of Worship for the Presbyterian Church U.S. and The United Presbyterian Church U.S.A., and was the editor of the current Book of Common Worship.
