Christianity

A collection of contemporary reflections on the psalms, rewriting the psalms in ways which help others to understand the meaning behind the narrative whilst also pinpointing their relevance for individuals today and offering accompanying prayers.

The essays in this book aim to answer the following questions: What was the place of prayer in the early modern world? What did it look and sound like?

Thomas Cranmer (1489-1556) was the first Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, the author of the Book of Common Prayer, and a central figure in the English Protestant Reformation.

Christianity has often seemed impatient with the idea of doubt. Certainty, not irresolution, has been seen as the test of faith and key to unlocking participation in the supposed life to come.
