The liturgy of the Word has three basic components: a reading from the Old Testament, a Psalm and its response, and a reading from one of the Gospels. The readings are divided according to season (of the Church Year), day of the week, and year. Catholics, if they attend weekday Masses daily will hear the almost all of the Bible in two years; if they only attend the Sunday Mass they will hear The Bible in three years.
So the Liturgy of the Word on a Typical Weekday is:
First Reading: Old Testament
Responsorial Psalm
The Alleluia
The Gospel
So the Liturgy of the Word on a Typical Sunday is:
First Reading: Old Testament
Responsorial Psalm
Second Reading: New Testament
The Alleluia
The Gospel
1) Introduction; 2) Opening Prayer; 3) Readings; 4) Sermon [Homilly]; 5) Creed; 6) Prayer of the Faithful
the center of the liturgy of the word is the gospel.
The two parts of the Mass are the Liturgy of the Word and then the Liturgy of the Eucharist. At the beginning of the Holy Mass we read 4 passages from Bible on Sundays and 3 on weekdays. The most important part of the Mass is the Liturgy of the Eucharist. (Communion).
It is because it is the word of God.
Divine Liturgy. Sacred Liturgy.
No. The Gospel the last reading of the Liturgy of the Word.
The Liturgy of the Word is the part of the Roman Catholic Mass where there are prayers and readings from scripture. It is named in contrast to the Liturgy of the Eucharist, which consists of the offertory, communion and Eucharistic prayer.

I believe it is the Liturgy of the Word (with the readings) and the "Liturgy" of Communion. I think those are the names, but I might be off a bit. Basically, it is divided between the readings and Communion. Source: Mostly Scott Hahn, plus being a Catholic. :P
A liturgy is the customary public worship done by a specific religious group, according to its particular traditions.
The word (Outline) is a hard word to spell when you have a spelling test.
The Epistles are included in the Liturgy of the Word because they offer great expansion on the lessons of the Gospels and the life of Our Lord.
There are four stages in the Mass namely: - its opening rites,- the proclamation of the word,- the liturgy of the Eucharist, and- the concluding rites.
