Published during the tenth anniversary of the Book of Common Worship (1993), The Companion to the Book of Common Worship is a practical guide, answering questions such as how do I use the Book of Common Worship to its fullest advantage? and how can the Book of Common Worship form a congregation into a community that glorifies and enjoys God?

To complement the popular 'how to do it' publications, which give guidance on the move to Common Worship, a serious and scholarly commentary on the whole range of Common Worship texts is offered here. There is an historical survey of the origins and development of each rite from New Testament times, through the Middle Ages, the Reformation, and up to the present day. This is followed by a detailed commentary on the rite as a whole, and on each part of it, including a comparison with the ASB and other contemporary liturgies, and a short list of books for further reading.

An essential and easy to use collection of prayers bound in a durable and portable format for the most frequently encountered pastoral occasions. It includes liturgies, prayers and readings for the sick and their families, the dying and at the time of a death, for use at home before and after a funeral, and more.

This Book of Common Worship is a compilation of services, prayers, and forms from the Presbyterian Book of Common Worship tradition. Though largely based upon the 1946 edition, this work also draws from the 1906, the 1932, and other service books in the Presbyterian tradition. It is in conformity with the Book of Church Order of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and includes the Confession of Faith and Catechisms.

Offers liturgical material for the journey of each individual through life. For each key element of this journey (birth, marriage, healing, death), it provides both material for key ‘public’ events and resources for ‘private’ pastoral care.
