description: Millions of Christians worldwide follow the liturgical Christian calendar in their worship services and in their own personal devotions. The seasons of the Christian year connect believers of diverse backgrounds and offer the sense of unity Jesus desired. Robert Webber believes that we can get even more out of the Christian calendar. He contends that through its rich theological meanings the Christian year can become a cycle for evangelism and spiritual formation. He offers pastors church leaders and those of the younger evangelical mind-set practical steps to help achieve this end including preaching texts and worship themes for Lent Easter Pentecost Advent and Christmas.
