Canterbury Companion To The Book Of Common Prayer Gospels

An inspring companion for preachers, following the calendar of the Book of Common Prayer. For every BCP service focusing on the Gospel of the day, it offers a devotion, a commentary on the Gospel reading, an appropriate quotation, and a prayer in traditional language to harmonise with the KJV text used in the Prayer Book. This companion provides commentary and devotional reflection on each of the Gospel readings in the Book of Common Prayer, for Sundays and for other occasions during the year. It is intended as an aid for those who preach, for those who prepare for worship by reading the scriptures of the day and for those who say the daily office alone. Each reflection is followed by a simple and heartfelt prayer and a quotation drawn from the breadth of the Christian tradition. A helpful introduction enlarges our understanding of the Gospels and their place in Prayer Book worship.
