Altar and Church

The book explores the historical and theological significance of altars in Christianity, particularly following the Second Vatican Council's liturgical reforms. It examines the tension between early Christian practices, which focused on communal meals in house churches, and the later development of formal rituals and sacred spaces under Emperor Constantine. By questioning established beliefs and clichés surrounding the evolution of the altar, the volume offers fresh insights and thought-provoking conclusions about the nature of worship and the Church's historical legacy.
