Publisher's Description

<p><strong>The 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition in pew format</strong></p><p><em>The Book of Common Prayer (1662)</em> is one of the most beloved liturgical texts in the Christian church, and remains a definitive expression of Anglican identity today. It is still widely used around the world, in public worship and private devotion, and is revered for both its linguistic and theological virtues.</p><p>But the classic text of the 1662 prayer book presents several difficulties forcontemporary users, especially those outside the Church of England. <em>The 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition</em> gently updates the text for contemporary use. Prayers specific to England are replaced. Obscure words and phrases havebeen modestly revised while still preserving the prayer book’s own cadence. Finally, a selection of treasured prayers from the later Anglican tradition is appended.</p><p>Here InterVarsity Press's <em>1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition</em> is presented in a pew format, with a larger format and larger typeface and with a durable cover and sturdy binding for regular use in corporate worship.</p>
