Call to Worship, Collect, Prayer of Confession, and three suggested hymns based on each lectionary text (First Lesson, Second Lesson, Gospel) are provided for every Sunday of the year in cycle A. Additional non-lectionary days such as All Saints, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Worldwide Communion Sunday, and parent's days are also included. A scripture index helps to make this one of the most useful and necessary worship helps in any pastor's library. What an asset! Imagine having a person on your staff doing weekly research on thematic materials for worship. What a time saver to be able to turn quickly to suggested Calls to Worship, Prayers, and Hymns appropriate for the lectionary Sunday. Jim Wilson's book of resources is like having him on your staff. Sharp, to the point, thematic, clear. Richard B. Wilke, Bishop, Arkansas Conference United Methodist Church I appreciate your thematic organization of the service and the blending of worship elements: the call to worship, collect, confession, and hymns. My secretary will appreciate the consistency in space requirements of the various service elements. These worship aids are well written, thoughtfully organized, and will help pastors with thematic organization. Jack Singleton, Pastor First Christian Church Sherwood, Arkansas James R.
