The Radical Implications of the Eucharist
(The Radical Implications of the Eucharist reflects decade...)
The Radical Implications of the Eucharist reflects decades of liturgical scholarship blended with a passion for social justice. Dr. Schmid once served as president of the Order of St. Luke, a United Methodist liturgical renewal organization, and has written and lectured on the issue of the sacrament of Holy Communion and its social relevance for the church. As pastor of rural, urban and suburban congregations and campus minister at the University of Delaware, his more than thirty-five years of ministry has centered on the Eucharist as the heart of the worshiping community. The Radical Implications of the Eucharist is a must-read for clergy in any Christian denomination and may be used for congregational study groups.
