Fr. Shawn McCain Tirres joins Fr. Ryan Boettcher and Ryan Flanigan to follow up their crash course on the basics of the Book of Common Prayer. What is the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) and how do we use it? For many who are new to the Anglican tradition, it can be intimidating to pick up the BCP and use it for prayer. That's OK, we'll show you the basics as well as share how praying with the church can be a huge help to your Christian life.
