Description
An introduction to the prayer book of the Episcopal Church. The Book of Common Prayer is nearly 1,000 pages long, yet most Episcopalians have only a passing acquaintance with this book, which is a spiritual gold mine. In this thorough introduction to the BCP, the author leads readers through each of its parts, explaining the history and background and helping make the book a more meaningful spiritual tool.
Reviews
"This book would make a wonderful gift for a new Episcopalian coming from another tradition."
--The Living Church
