Resources on Christianity in the Anglican tradition
Anglican Christianity is meant to be a middle way between Geneva (Calvin, in the time of the Reformation) and Wittenberg (Luther, in the time of the Reformation). Our liturgy is contained in the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) and built on the solid foundation of Holy Scripture. The Thirty-Nine Articles (found in the BCP) are our further guide posts for faith and practice. The Creeds (Apostles, Nicene, Athanasian, also found in the prayer book) widely accepted by Christians for hundreds and thousands of years preserve the faith from what C. S. Lewis called “chronological snobbery,” the tendency of each new human generation to see itself as more enlightened than those who came before them, making us vulnerable to new blind spots and errors that each generation of human society might be tempted to adopt or introduce.
