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.
