The Three Year Series
Journals on worship, international and ecumenical Sunday School resources, other Prayer Books (be they Anglican, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, or Uniting Church) all provide suggestions and commentary for the Three Year Series. The list of helpful publications is seemingly endless. Here are some to whet the appetite.
Fred B. Craddock, et al., Preaching the New Common Lectionary, (Nashville: Abingdon Press, 1984/5). An excellent nine volume commentary.
Robin Duckworth (ed.), This is the Word of the Lord, Oxford University Press, 1981. Three Volume. One of a number of such commentaries intended for general use and particularly helpful for those who read in church to understand the passage clearly and hence communicate it more effectively.
Reginald H. Fuller, Preaching the Lectionary, (Collegeville: The Liturgical Press, 1984). This Anglican author provides a solid exegesis of each text, with concrete suggestions for homilies. One volume.
An Inclusive Language lectionary, The Cooperative Publication Association USA, 1985/88. A three volume edition of the texts of the set readings giving alternative suggestions for inclusive language.
Gerard MacGinty (ed.), Glenstal Bible Missal, Sydney: Collins, 1984. One of the Roman Catholic Sunday Prayer Books, this one includes not only all the readings and Collects printed in full, but every Sunday has an introduction, as has each reading. There are suggestions for prayer, many biblical crossreferences, and a devotional reflection.
Proclamation, Philadelphia: Fortress Press. An ongoing series of commentaries and homiletical applications by a variety of outstanding scholars. Every year there are eight new volumes.
Gail Ramshaw (ed.), Intercessions for the Christian People, New York: Pueblo Publishing Company, 1988. This has helpful models for the Prayers of the People for each of the Sundays and major feasts over the three years.
Denis Towner, Preachers Guide to the Australian Hymn Book, Sydney: Unichurch, 1983. This provides up to twelve hymn suggestions for each Sunday. The Hymn Book is almost the same as With One Voice.
