However, the arrangement of the site is a bit awkward, in that to find articles about the liturgy you seem to have to wade through the various church year categories, or do a general search. I also haven't found a specific article addressing some of my questions, such as the logic of the selections themselves and how this may compare to the three-year series. I am not opposed to the One Year series and am tempted to adopt it in the future, and believe that Pr. Pepperkorn's site might be great resource once I do. I'm just interested at this point in information 'behind' the lectionary - the historical, thematic questions not always addressed. <br /><br />Again, thank you for letting me know of the resource!Donald V.

A copy of Fred Lindemann's THE SERMON AND THE PROPERS (CPH, 1958) was left behind in the office when I took over 10 years ago, and I would love to be able to use it, but it is tied to the historic lectionary. At this point those who use the historic lectionary have the advantage of access to the older, ancient sources, such as those noted. I realize that CPH did a survey not long ago seeing if there might be potential for developing resources for those who use the One Year series. Unfortunately, due to the low numbers and discontinuity among the few, they decided to pass. I assume someone has taken the ball and run with it now and will produced some resource equivalent to CPH's (e.g. inserts, etc.) Does anyone know of someone doing this at present?Donald V.

I have all our Lutheran fathers until Vatican II operating with some variation of this lectionary. I can read further back if I so desire. Thus, each week my sermon preparation includes Luther, Gerhard, Walther, Kretzmann and others in between.Christopher Gillespiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06665531626315066953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55727507006016944.post-3762251840090852772011-02-21T23:17:46.187-08:002011-02-21T23:17:46.187-08:00I can't help with a particular resource, Donal...I can't help with a particular resource, Donald, but use of a revised version of the Revised Common Lectionary (RVRCL?!) is universal in the Lutheran Church of Australia. The main reason for our adoption of the RCL, if I understand correctly, was that it was more ecumenical, as the RC and Anglican churches down here had switched to it (and that's c. 70% of the worshipping Christian population). As a preacher, I have to say I appreciate the RCL, but there is surely something to be said for the closer familiarity with the Bible that the historic Lutheran one year lectionary would provide.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08978657816767706667noreply@blogger.com
