More Bible oriented:
- The Four Gospels on Sunday: The New Testament and the Reform of Christian Worship
- Advent/Christmas (Aids for Interpreting the Lessons of the Church Year: Proclamation 4, Series B)
Liturgical history:
- Christian Worship in East and West: A Study Guide to Liturgical History (with Herman A. J. Wegman)
The last book is another that would help with the balance of offerings.
