Consecrating the World

Book • 2016
David Fagerberg's work examines how Christian liturgy and sacraments function to manifest Christ's presence and to 'consecrate the world' by making the divine reality tangible in created things.

He argues that the performed Word — liturgical actions and sacraments — is central to how the church participates in God's redeeming activity.

Fagerberg draws on patristic, medieval, and modern liturgical scholarship to show how liturgy shapes Christian imagination and orients believers toward the eschatological renewal of creation.

The book emphasizes the embodied, material, and spatial dimensions of worship as means by which the heavenly reality breaks into ordinary life.

It has been influential in ecumenical liturgical studies and in conversations about how worship orders the church's mission and worldview.
