Perhaps we are asking the wrong question here. The Eucharist does not belong to any denomination. It is the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, who...
I keep asking myself why I am disturbed at this talk of a nondenominational eucharist. Perhaps perhaps the eucharist is never an abstract action of faith but...

I find the ELW to be a faithful balance of expansive language as well as the more traditional verse. Some language was reclaimed, particularly with regard to...

If one wants to use expansive language, then do so in prayer and hymnody. It is NOT appropriate to play games with Scripture that is being used as Scripture...
My understanding is that that may take some time, Art. The first two printings sold out (who'd a thunk?). So they'll ship the next round, per information...
The BCW, as I understand it, was intended to be a resource and a pew edition was not developed. It was available on disc and was readily usuable by pastor or...

Most of the multiplication within priestly orders in Roman Catholicism have resulted from competing readings of basic confessional documents. Is this a correct...
No early Roman liturgy before other splintered off is extant. If Hippolytus is taken as an example (ca. 215), he has already splittered off from the mainline...
