Excerpt from The Art of Public Worship The following chapters were originally delivered as the Bohlen Lectures at Philadelphia in January, 1919. Part of their substance was afterwards repeated at S. Martin-in-the-Fields, London, during Lent. That I had thus both American and English audiences in view has helped me greatly in broadening my outlook upon the subject, and will not I hope make these pages less acceptable either to American or English readers. There is considerable difference not only between the rites but also between the customs and traditions of the two Churches; and in this era of Prayer Book revision we English Churchmen have much to learn from the sister Church, which has, with a greater freedom from convention and prejudice, already made considerable alterations in public worship, providing some admirable examples of reform and a few examples also of mistakes to be avoided.

A resource for worshipers today looking to change hardened worship patterns that stand in the way of everyday spirituality. All too often, those who attend church or synagogue find themselves bored or baffled by the service. Their predominant thought is how slowly the time ticks by--and that the service never seems to end. Written for laypeople and clergy of any denomination, The Art of Public Prayer examines how and why religious ritual works--and why it often doesn't work. The Art of Public Prayer uses psychology, social science, theology and common sense to explain the key roles played by ritual, symbolism, liturgy and song in services. Each chapter features "conversation points" designed to get you and your faith community thinking and talking about your own worship patterns--where they succeed, and where they need improvement. The Art of Public Prayer can help you and your fellow congregants revitalize your worship service by allowing you to organize and direct your own worship, making it a meaningful and fulfilling part of your life.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ...sermons by the gown, processions (which are of enormous psychological and aesthetic value in those comparatively few churches where they are properly managed) by the officiant's cope, the verger's gown and staff, and the other varied and interesting ornaments that have come down to us. It is common sense, again, that the people should be able to "spot" a bishop by his mitre, a canon by his almuce, a doctor by his robes, to discern a server by his rochet or albe, a deacon by his dalmatic, and to distinguish the officiant from his assistants. All such things add life and interest to public worship, as well as beauty. It is reasonable again that these things should be of such historic types as are familiar through great paintings and sculpture; also that they should be rich and fresh in colour, dignified and undebased in style, and in fact beautiful. It is furthermore a sensible thing that they should submerge the officiant in his office, and free us from the obsession of his frock-coat, his button-hole, or cravat--that we should, for instance, be conscious on Christmas Day of the Christmas chasuble rather than of Dr. Honeytongue's new gloves 1 or Mr. Boanerges' high collar. It is also a matter of common sense that such things should be as significant as possible, not through the inventions of a sickly socalled "mysticism," but through varying their colours and those of the altar according to the season; so that our earthly paradise does not look the same in Lent as in Advent or Passiontide, or in Passiontide as at Easter.
