Book Description
In her study Chaoluan Kao offers a comprehensive investigation of popular piety at the time of the European Reformations through the study of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Protestant prayerbooks. It pursues a historical-contextual approach to spirituality by integrating social and religious history in order to yield a deeper understanding of both the history of Christian piety and of church history in general. The study explores seven prayerbooks by German authors and seventeen English prayerbooks from the Reformation and post-Reformation as well as from Lutheran, Anglican, and Puritan traditions, examining them as spiritual texts with social and theological significance that helped disseminate popular understandings of Protestant piety. Early Protestant piety required intellectual engagement, emphasized a faithful and heartfelt attitude in approaching God, and urged regular exercise in prayer and reading. Early Protestant prayerbooks modeled for their readers a Protestant piety that was a fervent spiritual practice solidly grounded in the social context and connections of its practitioners. Through those books, Reformation could be understood as redefining the meanings of people's spiritual lives and re-discovering of a pious life. In a broader sense, they functioned as a channel of historical and spiritual transition, which not only tells us the transformation and transmission of Reformation historically but also signifies the development of Christian spirituality. The social-historical study of the prayerbooks furthers our understanding of continuity, change, and inter-confessional influence in the Christian piety of early modern Europe.

Book Description
This was designed for Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer, the Litany and Ante-Communion, using the 1662 BCP as the structure. However, we added the Westminster Standards and Three Forms of Unity. It's a "Reformed Book of Common Prayer." It was designed for those with Reformed backgrounds who get no Reformed Theology in Anglican and Episcopal contexts, schools or pulpits. The old Anglicans had Reformed Churchmen, but those days are gone. Expect little-to-no Reformed Theology in Anglican/Episcopal contexts. This was designed for private use. It does not have the other offices. For those with Reformed catechesis in their backgrounds, you will understand this. For the Reformed, we are still liturgical and Prayer Bookish. Neither affinity group may like the amendments, yet both may understand this hybrid, driven of necessity and desire. Yet, both old school Anglicans, old school Presbyterians and old school Reformed Churchmen will recognize these things. Of course, the Anabaptacostalist traditions will not understand any of this. They would rather clap, enthuse, "get all excited" and do free-for-alls. Clap-trap. However, this new RBCP is "regulated" and disciplined by the Bible. It may be the first of its kind--both Reformed and Anglican.
