We’re thinking of starting a Celtic Eucharist. Ideas so far include Latin Mass at 6am, turning off the heat, public humiliation of penitents, and having people dress up like Vikings and burst in during (Latin) Matins to kill some of us. Still brainstorming.

Do people like the ACNA’s New Coverdale translation of the Psalter better than the 1979’s? I don’t usually mind 1979’s, but every now and again it’s obviously fudging. But I feel like I’m opposed to the de-LXXing of the Coverdale/not sure modernizing it would work well

To that end, I find that the new entry in the St Andrews Encyclopaedia of Theology by D. N. Keane is an excellent introduction to the important issues. Well done. saet.ac.uk/Christianity/T… /2

Does anyone have access to the CofE's Revised Psalter 1963/4 that CS Lewis and Eliot were involved with? It's impossible to find online, or at my library. The ACNA BCP claims to have drawn on it, and I want to compare.

It’s so interesting that in America the BCP is public domain but in England they copyright the hell out of all their liturgical books
