A rich resource book?lavishly illustrated with examples from many
countries?to delight the eye and instruct the mind. Its
wide-ranging glossaries are a Godsend, saving our embarrassment by
explaining all those terms we've always been hazy about. Newcomer
and rusty old-timer alike will find within it treasures both old
and new.The Rev. Richard Giles, Dean, Philadelphia Episcopal
Cathedral, Author of Re-pitching the Tent: Reordering the Church
Building for Worship and Mission
Dilasser's The Symbols of the Church is one of those rare books
that makes the connections and allows the rich dimensions of Bible,
nature, and human experience to emerge from the treasury of
ecclesial symbols. Here the church's iconography and liturgical
rites shine with new splendor. This book is a feast for the eyes as
well as a spiritual banquet for the heart.Paul Philibert, OP,
Director, The Institute for Church Life
