What Christianity: Living the Christian Life covers

Christianity: Living the Christian Life is examined in whichever of the three papers Christianity is studied for, because this section is the same in all three areas of study.

It covers liturgical and non-liturgical Christian worship, baptism, the Eucharist and the Christian sacraments, types of Christian prayer and the Lord's Prayer, Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem, Iona, Taize and Walsingham, Advent, Christmas, Holy Week and Easter, Christian mission, evangelism and Church growth, the local church in the community and the worldwide Church, reconciliation and Christian Aid.

    Why do many Christians value liturgical worship?

    Model answer

    Liturgy connects worshippers with Christians across the world and through history. Familiar words help people worship together without distraction.
