The English Civil War and its aftermath was a time of human
devastation, political uncertainty and religious instability. Amid
the turmoil of those times, however, the Church of England also saw
intense liturgical inventiveness. The Directory for Public Worship,
Jeremy Taylor's Communion Office, and Richard Baxter's Reformed
Liturgy, are all examples of resourceful liturgies born out of the
ashes of the English Civil War. The Church of England had not
witnessed such liturgical innovation since Thomas Cranmer, and
would not see such creativity again until the end of the twentieth
century - at least in terms of liturgical texts. In Richard
Baxter's Reformation of the Liturgy, Glen J. Segger examines the
theology and ecclesiology of Baxter's liturgical opus. While never
approved for public use, the Reformed Liturgy remains an important
and creative liturgy representative of those who fought for their
Puritan convictions, but lost.
