Having buried loved ones hearing the same holy words of the KJV Bible and 1662 Prayer Book, one better understands the real communion common prayer creates among a people; the families of Queens and Ditch-diggers hear the same hope of the resurrection: of a world without end.

Worship would be a 1000x more faithful and edifying if people believed the Book of Common Prayer when it tells us our worship is a "sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving" rather than an aesthetically pleasing experience designed to make us feel better about our place in modernity.

My daughter had a profound thought today while her mother was going over the Book of Common Prayer's catechism with her: 'Usually kids ask questions and adults give the answer, but in the catechism, adults ask the questions and kids give the answers.' She really liked that idea.

Thank you for all of your prayers; Elsie's surgery well. She now has a tap installed in her head whereby they can slowly drain out the excess fluid. Eventually, they will install a permanent shunt, so we are in for a long stay. The nurses turned her head covering into cat ears.

There is a valid critique of certain evangelical Anglicans who often have read no Anglican other than Packer and Stott; however, the same critique holds for Anglicans who have read only a handful of 20th century Anglo-Catholics and fill in the blanks with Roman Catholic authors.

If one is speaking about the Anglican Way, please stop saying, "There really aren't any Anglican systematic theological texts." Just because one hasn't read any Anglican systematic theologies does not mean they don't exist and aren't readily available.

A powerful recommendation for the Anglican Way is its ability to thrive even in the worst conditions. Heathens bomb your church? Simply clear away some of the rubble, preach the Word, administer the Sacraments, and repeat until Christ returns.

1. The 79 Episcopal prayer book's vandalism of the Advent collects is nuts. Moving the 'Stir Up Sunday' collect to Advent III to then jettison the incredible Cranmerian Advent II collect exhorting us to read and study the Bible (the joke writes itself here) was a heck of a choice

Ok, one of you saints has sent me a 3 volume copy of D'oyly and Mant's Anglican Family Study Bible (1817). And now I'm shotgunning YouTube videos with titles like "typesetting for dummies" to try and figure out some way to get this gem into every Anglican home.

There is a certain kind of religiously progressive Anglo-Catholic who thinks the Holy Spirit speaks authoritatively through His church and in history for the express purpose of contradicting the parts of the 39 Articles the progressive A/C doesn't like. Couldn't be me.

In a recent podcast on Anglican Audio, Prof. Samuel Bray, co-editor of the 1662:IE, mentioned that the simplicity of the 1662 especially aided children in learning the service. Our experience in Connersville has very much shown that to be the case. The kids sing and pray loudly.

There really is no such thing as a "contemporary language" liturgy because there is no such thing as contemporary language. All of them are merely the codification of a certain type of language preferred by whatever committee was set up to try and put words in people's mouths.
