Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

Cambridge Press: 1662 BCP & KJV Under One Roof

This attractively bound book brings together two of the most significant texts in the English language, the Prayer Book and the King James Bible. The Prayer Book contains the time-honoured text of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, used in homes and churches throughout the world. The page format and layout are the same as the Cambridge BCP Enlarged Edition. The Bible has full cross-references and is in the classic Pitt Minion format, noted for its elegant layout. The text has been freshly typeset and unusually for a KJV Bible, features paragraph format. The book is bound in deep purple calf split leather with a presentation page and two ribbon markers.
