The ideas in this book will inform and equip anyone compiling their own service sheets or books, enabling them to produce materials that are both elegant and appropriate for their setting and purpose.
"Although explicitly written for an Anglican readership, there is much good material for those in other denominations... I approached this book with some scepticism, but read it with increasing enthusiasm. Warmly recommended." - Stuart Bell, The Methodist Recorder
