Thomas Cranmer's Prayer Book of 1549 is a foundational document of
the Anglican Church and a priceless part of English-speaking
Christianity. Cranmer's unique gift of blending theological
substance with simple, humble, and moving clarity has made the
Collects (prayers) essential not only to the English liturgy but
also to the pastoral tradition of the church: these prayers still
remain a deep source of inspiration for Christians enmeshed in the
everyday trials and testings of life.
Published on the occasion of the 450th anniversary of the Book
of Common Prayer, "The Collects of Thomas Cranmer" presents this
spiritually rich material in its original form and order. Compiled
and presented for devotional use by C. Frederick Barbee and Paul F.
M. Zahl, Cranmer's Collects are each followed by succinct
commentary on their historical context and an insightful meditation
crafted with contemporary Christians in mind.
Including a significant introduction to Cranmer and his work by
C. FitzSimons Allison, this beautifully produced volume opens
afresh Cranmer's classic devotional treasure to modern believers
from all communions.
