At our Initial Ministerial Education 4-7 residential conference, someone said that in the church we are not merely rearranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic while the ship sinks. We are designing new furniture! We need to get out there with the gospel. This was all with reference to the shelf-space the Common Worship series now takes up and how long the whole process of devising it and adapting it each week takes.

Hi Marc. Thanks for linking to my blog. This post reminded me of the introduction to the Prayer Book (the real one, that is ;-)), which gave one of the reasons why it was needed as follows: "Moreover, the number and hardness of the Rules called the Pie, and the manifold changings of the service, was the cause, that to turn the book only was so hard and intricate a matter, that many times there was more business to find out what should be read, than to read it when it was found out."
