Piety in Song

Spiritual Themes in Brethren Hymnody

By: Peter E. Roussakis

Hymns are lasting expressions of faith and worship. Hymns in German piety were written to serve as meditations and to teach individuals how to become better followers of Jesus. This volume examines the thinking and influences which shaped the hymns which the Brethren chose to write and sing, revealing a great deal to the modern reader about their journey of faith and the spiritual progress of the movement from its beginnings to the present day. Specific attention is given to examples of hymn texts which highlight the distinctive themes and characteristics of Brethren spirituality in the various eras of Brethren life and thought.

United in Prayer

By: Peter E. Roussakis

Christians everywhere are uniquely linked together by a simple prayer which “binds our hearts in Christian love” - the Lord’s Prayer. In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus Christ provided His disciples with meaningful instructions about how to pray. Praying this model prayer with one accord contributes to the binding together of our hearts in God’s love. The Lord’s Prayer is sacred for Christians. Through it, in times of trial as well as ease, we may turn to God for help and support. This book provides a deeper study of this “prayer of prayers,” with an overview of its scriptural context, inclusions and order, and an introduction to the Jewish Setting of the prayer. The book concludes with the theme of Christians being united through learning and praying the Lord’s prayer together.
