Product Description

The introduction of "The Common Worship Lectionary" has brought to the Church of England what should prove a valuable new resource. The three-year structure of the new lectionary provides a comprehensive selection of readings for the Church's year, giving the scriptures their due prominence in worship. The structure not only expands the range of readings available, but also provides a format that enhances congregational understanding of the texts. Common worship is now in widespread use in the Church of England, and this text should prove a useful companion volume.

Customer Reviews

A commendable volume
Common Worship uses the New Revised Standard Version Anglicized bible for all its references and so it makes very good sense to own a lectionary in the same edition. This volume usefully contains all of the bible readings for every Sunday of the year and for all the other high days and holidays as well. The book includes all the readings for three years of the cycle and so the volume may seem large at first handling. What won me over was the the high standard of publication; the book is well made and easy to read. Also, I have to confess, a pleasure to own.
