'''''The Worshipbook of 1970''''' is a [[liturgical book of the Presbyterian Church (USA)]] and was a radical departure from previous works. This book was composed in the shadow of a great [[ecumenical movement]] that included the [[Consultation on Church Union]], the [[Second Vatican Council]] (Vatican II), the [[Jesus Movement]], and many other attempts toward liturgical reform and ecumenical unions. |
|||
The most significant feature is its brevity. The Worshipbook of 1970 is visibly thinner than the previous editions of the [[Book of Common Worship]]. The language is very contemporary, taking what was then a bold step away from Elizabethan language in a liturgical book. There was less dependency on liturgical traditions, such as the [[Book of Common Prayer]]. |
|||
Since the book was so thin, it was published as both a singular volume and also bound with a new hymnal for the church. |
