Frank C. Senn explores the relationship between the sacramental body and blood of Christ, the ecclesial body of Christ, and the body of the communicant

Frank Senn ventures behind the liturgical screen, behind the texts, and behind the rubrics to reconstruct the everyday religious expression in Christian history. Senns magisterial Christian Liturgy: Catholic and Evangelical (1997) has been widely hailed for its appreciation of the dynamic role of culture in shaping liturgical expression. In The Peoples Work, Senn delves further into the cultural home of liturgy looking at processions and pilgr...

Embodied Liturgy marks a "return to the body" in thinking about Christian liturgy and sacramental practice.

This serious inquiry into the relationship between worship and its cultural setting can help pastors, seminarians, and other worship leaders steer a path between cultural capitulation on the one hand and cultural irrelevancy on the other in the ordering and doing of Christian liturgy. Senn suggests that the interplay between cult and culture should be a transformation of culture as it is appropriated in Christian worship, leading to an experie...
