Beyond the Lectionary gives preachers a new year of Biblical texts that are not found on Sundays (or other mainline Protestant holy days) in the three-year cycle of the Revised Common Lectionary. It provides readings from the Hebrew Bible, Psalms, Epistles/New Testament and Gospels for each Sunday of the liturgical year, along with several midweek observances. The texts have been selected with an eye toward continuity (progressing in order) and complementarity (textual completion or harmony), and they are accompanied by commentaries and prayers. Written in language that is accessible to both lay people and professionals, Beyond the Lectionary has the potential to transform congregational culture by bringing more of the content of scripture to people's awareness. ,

Worship should be about more than just your ears. Worship means more when we’re experiencing more than simply the spoken, read, and sung word. That’s why Delia Halverson and Karen Appleby have written Creating Holy Space; to help us worship with our eyes as well as our ears. The book contains suggestions for worship visuals tied to each Sunday of all three years of the Revised Common Lectionary. These visuals can be assembled on the altar, placed elsewhere in the sanctuary, or photographed to be used for projection. The weekly entries describe each of the four readings for that Sunday, and suggest viuals appropriate to each, creating a multi-sensory experience of worship bound up with the day’s lectionary theme.

Proposed prayers for gathering, intercession, and scripture reading portions of worship, for use by all churches who use the Revised Common Lectionary.

Biblical and contemporary images and ideas come together in a powerful expression of faith. Updated to follow the newly revised Common Lectionary, this resource includes Invocation, Call to Worship, Litany Prayer for One Voice, and Benediction for each Sunday in the Christian year. The authors have created a "dialogue with Scripture" in which Biblical and contemporary images and ideas come together in a powerful expression of faith.

This lectionary contains all of the readings (Lesson, Response, Epistle, and Gospel) for the Sundays in Years A, B, and C as well as all the readings for the Holy Days and Special Occasions of the church year. Whenever possible the texts for the Response (psalm or canticle) are taken from The Book of Common Prayer. Also included are the texts of the contemporary version of the Collects of the Day from the BCP.

Edited by Douglas Wingeier, this is a Lectionary-based Adult Bible study complete with weekly session plans that can be used by a Sunday morning class on either the preceding Sunday or on the Sunday when the sections are read. This resource may also be used by a worship planning group to review the actual scriptural content of the lections in planning the liturgical elements of the service. Study groups at times other than Sunday morning will find it useful in preparation for Sunday worship.
