N1  - Revision of the author's thesis (Ph. D.)--Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, 2003 under title: The prophetic dimension of liturgy : transformative liturgy seeking social-economic justice; Includes bibliographical references (pages 145-152) and index; Foundational concepts for prophetic praxis -- Sacrament as prophetic voice -- Liturgy as means of transformation -- Total sacramental rituality -- A matrix of total sacramental rituality
N2  - The primary purpose of Prophetic Liturgy is to inquire into the prophetic dimension of the liturgy. Some questions addressed in the book are: How can a liturgy be prophetic? How can liturgy form and transform individuals and communities? In which sense does the liturgy facilitate a living participation in socio-political-economic life? How does the sacramental practice challenge the church to mediate God's gifts of grace, love, justice, and mercy to the world? Possible answers for these questions begin to emerge as we develop an understanding of religious praxis as an active and dynamic prophetic action, in which the community of faith claims its identity, promotes an engaged faithful Christian life, and affirms the sacramental life of the church as a source of formation and inspiration for prophetic praxis, mediating God's gift for the life of the world. There is risk in presenting an option for prophetic praxis, in that it may go beyond the comfort zone of a community and engender spiritual and political alienation. The most challenging ethical hope of this book is to provide the worshiping community with prophetic awareness of socio-economic injustice, while at the same time preserving the community's historical-cultural identity, its religious values, and its sacramental spirituality
