The Service for the Lord's Day describes the general format or ordering of worship in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A). The creation of the service for the Lord's Day was one of the most positive contributions of the Worship Book of 1970. The Presbyterian Supplemental Liturgical Resource (SLT) series includes liturgies that were used on a trial basis in preparation for the development of the Book of Common Worship. Though superseded by the Book of Common Worship, SLR resources remain valuable, both for the variety of liturgical texts they contain and for the commentary on the text, which contains rich historical, theological, and practical background.

What is the Christian Lord's Day? Why is it of continued importance? What does is represent? These and other questions will be addressed in The Lord's Day in Scripture. The Lord's Day is the scriptural name for the Christian day of worship on the first day of the week. The Lord's Day is the Lord's Day--the day of which the Lord Jesus Christ took possession by his resurrection on the first day of the week. The day of Christ's resurrection was prophesied in the Old Testament to be on the third day, fulfilled in the New Testament on the first day of the week, and celebrated as the Lord's Day. Therefore, the time of the resurrection is directly connected to the event of the resurrection. The Lord's Day in Scripture establishes the scriptural basis for the Lord's Day. It seeks to help each Christian appreciate worship, fellowship, and meaning in church through a better understanding of what the Lord's Day is and is not.
