Anglican Life: Polity and Liturgy
This course is designed to introduce you to the nature and practice of Christian worship, liturgy, and sacramental theology. After these subjects are introduced, the class will use its understanding of these subjects as a foundation for looking at the history, theology and practice of baptism, the Eucharist, and other services used in Anglican parishes, particularly in light of the Book of Common Prayer tradition. Attention will also be given to the pastoral issues surrounding the administration of the sacraments and pastoral services within the local parish. The course will give an overview of the polity and ethos of Anglicanism
