“In this wise and helpful book, The Purpose-Driven Life meets the Episcopal Church. Liturgical Life Principles is as practical in approach as Rick Warren’s well-known work for someone who wants to grow in faith, only this one is deeply Anglican. Rarely has the connection between worship and daily Christian life been so clearly and compellingly drawn.”—The Very Rev. Samuel T. Lloyd, III, Dean, Washington National Cathedral“In the light of the megachurch focus on hope, this book calls us to experience a more complete gospel that includes hope, personal transformation, and confrontation with evil and injustice. While this volume is an excellent resource for adult education or confirmation instruction, in its simplicity it encourages the life-long practicing Christian (like myself) to focus again on the basics of worship and Christian living.”—Ward B. Ewing, Dean & President of The General Theological Seminary of the Episcopal Church, New York City“Ian Markham has offered the Church a practical and devotional guide to the Eucharist. This book gives Christians, new believers, and those seasoned in the faith, a valuable tool to make sense of liturgical practices in terms of their own lives.”—George Wayne Smith, Bishop of Missouri, The Episcopal Church“… [A] wonderful, exciting and enticing book which will appeal to those in the pew as much as the pulpit. This is a marvelous primer on worship and daily life which will energize and inspire all who read it in their discipleship and walk with God.”—Revd. Canon Professor Martyn Percy, Principal, Ripon College Cuddesdon & The Oxford Ministry Course, Oxford, United Kingdom
