IVP Readers' Choice Award The Book of Common Prayer (1662) 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. But the classic text of the 1662 prayer book presents
several difficulties for contemporary users, especially those
outside the Church of England. The 1662 Book of Common Prayer:
International Edition gently updates the text for contemporary use.
State prayers of England have been replaced with prayers that can
be used regardless of nation or polity. Obscure words and phrases
have been modestly revised--but always with a view towards
preserving the prayer book's own cadence. Finally, a selection of
treasured prayers from later Anglican tradition has been appended.
The 1662 prayer book remains a vital resource today, both in the
Anglican Communion and for Christians everywhere. Here it is
presented for continued use for today's Christians throughout the
world.
You live a busy life, juggling work, family, chores, and more. Into
this busy life come challenges--difficult relationships, health
concerns, deferred dreams, loss--and blessings--a new job, a new
baby, new friends, new hobbies. And all of it is something you can
pray about. But maybe you're not sure how. Beautifully designed and
perfect for gift-giving, 100 Days of Prayer for Women is a
collection of go-to prayers for when you want to say something to
God but you're not sure just what words to use. Covering the
challenging, the joyful, and even the mundane aspects of life,
these prayers help you express yearning, praise, lament, and
gratitude to the One who made you, sustains you, and loves you
through it all. If you need encouragement and inspiration each day,
look no further!
