The Worship Sourcebook
(Faith Alive Christian Resources, Baker Books, Calvin Institute of Christian Worship, 2004)

This publication is a comprehensive guide to planning worship. The Worship Sourcebook offers a collection of calls to worship, prayers of confession, and other spoken prayers and litanies for use on particular Sundays and during specific seasons of the Christian Year. The Worship Sourcebook is similar in purpose to the popular Book of Common Worship, but includes recent materials for children and for contemporary and global contexts. The companion CD included with the book contains the entire 800-page text for easy cutting and pasting into bulletins, overheads, and orders of worship. The Worship Sourcebook is also an ideal resource for exploring worship in a classroom setting.
