Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book contributes to the historical conversation about Lay Readers through legislation and church canon law. Starting from the biblical origins of the role of the Lay Reader, the author explores how the role changed during the first centuries of the church with groups such as the Salvation Army and the Society Of Friends. Lay Readers performed various roles such as teaching, preaching, and providing pastoral care, and were central to the growth of the Church in the US, especially in areas where there were few clergy. The book provides practical guidance for those wishing to lead services as a lay reader, and also discusses the spiritual life of the Lay Reader. This book is a valuable resource for those considering a Lay Reader ministry, as well as for priests and bishops who are considering using Lay Readers in their parishes.
