This book is a user manual to the International Version of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer published by InterVarsity Press in 2021, edited by Bray and Keane. Once that initial confusion is cleared up, the book’s intention becomes quite clear: it introduces non-Anglican evangelicals discovering liturgy for the first time to a venerable and time-tested expression of Christian worship, a solid, stately liturgy with a Reformation edge.
Karen Stiller focuses on several words — fruit, body, money, hospitality, humility, beauty, church, remembering, and sorrow — to explain how holiness might become real in our lives.
