I’ve been noticing a trend within the Reformed Presbyterian world.
Many churches seem to be drawn to practices that have more in common
with Rome than with Geneva. I’m not really sure what exactly the
attraction is, but here are some of the things I’ve noticed, in no
particular order:
- Eucharistic liturgy
- Intinction
- Monastic Retreats
- Contemplative prayer
- Vestments
- Observance of Ash Wednesday/Lent
It seems worthwhile, given the current fascination, to consider these
practices and to ask whether they are in keeping with Scripture and our
Reformed Presbyterian heritage.
First, while there are many opinions and preferences on liturgical
style in worship, there is more going on here than simply responsive
readings. Some churches have begun to borrow liturgy from the Catholic
Eucharist mass to use in their own communion services. Most often what
is used is the “mysterium fidei” Continue at Rachel Miller
