Specialists in the field of liturgy have called The Struggle to Reclaim the Liturgy in the Lutheran Church “a roadmap for peace in the worship wars,” “a major contribution to the wider debate on Liturgical Theology,” “necessary reading for transcending the traditional-contemporary worship divide.” This book addresses the problem of polarization over worship in the Lutheran Church. It explores in detail what the sixteenth-century reformers wrote about worship (Martin Luther, Philip Melanchthon, Martin Chemnitz). It also addresses the issue of liturgy and culture in today’s context from a Lutheran point of view.
