Sinopsis

Are you looking for fresh, original hymn lyrics and liturgy for your church?áWould you like to celebrate diverse ways of being fully human in a loving faith community?Is your church ready to explore current ideas about God - not just male, not up there, but down here with us - creation, Jesus & theology?áThen these 42 hymns, 70 gatherings, affirmations, and blessings, along with poems & reflections, will provide a valuable resource to support your worship ministry.áSusanâÇÖs lyrics, that can be sung to well known tunes, have been used at a Presbytery inauguration, in communion, at anniversaries, for baptisms and for a same sex wedding. They have featured in Pride services, Transgender Day of Remembrance commemorations, during Bible Month and throughout the Season of Creation.áSusanâÇÖs kitset hymn ln our world we find delight, written for original music by Vivien Chiu, covers the whole Season of Creation 3-year cycle.áHer lyrics and liturgy mark the seasons of the church year in unusual ways as well as celebrating: questioning, rainbow themes, faith stages, the cosmos, diverse orientations and identities, gender equality, 21st century reformation, interfaith connection, prodigals, postmodern church, endangered species, and the importance of finding the Self by going deep within.Praise for Progressing the Journey'...I strongly recommend Susan JonesâÇÖ Progressing on the Journey and her deeply contemplated and whole-hearted expression of distinctive New Zealand themes and images, this is a very rich new spiritual resource for troubled times.'Colin Gibson, Hymnwriter, Composer & Lay Preacher'This book speaks deeply to me in Aotearoa about the variety of our people. Through these words, different races, genders, and sexual orientations are all welcomed as part of the beauty of GodâÇÖs world.I love that SusanâÇÖs taken old hymns and provided new words. She takes seriously what weâÇÖre doing to the land and each other.These lyrics and liturgies speak deeply to me about the God I know, the God I see in the Bible but also in the land, its beauty, the mysteries of creation and those around me.I wish IâÇÖd had this book when preparing services each Sunday. Now, it takes me deeper into God as part of my morning prayer. Thank you, Susan.'Very Rev. Marg Schrader former Moderator, Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa New Zealand'...Jones has a concern for the dignity and inclusion of LGBTIQ people in church and community. She has written several prayers on this theme and for occasions such as Pride month and Transgender Memorial Day. I applaud her prompting us to be truthful, honest and respectful about the variety of human experience.Finally I applaud her courage. She asks readers if they cannot use the whole of a prayer or hymn as written, then why use it at all? Worship leaders often self-censor. I recommend this brave and poetic work.'Reviewed by Rev David Poultney in the October 2022 issue of NZ Methodist newspaper Touchstone
