Summary "The Prayer Book Explained" by Percival Jackson is a theological treatise written in the early 20th century. The book explores the intricacies of the Church of England's Prayer Book, focusing on its daily offices, the litany, and various forms of worship. It aims to provide insight into the significance of structured worship and the spiritual depth behind the texts used in congregational prayer. The opening of the work establishes the author's belief in the essential role of the Prayer Book within the framework of the One Holy Catholic Church. Percival Jackson begins by emphasizing the importance of worship as an act of faith and the divine guidance it confers, suggesting that true worship fosters connection with the Holy Spirit. Jackson introduces the concept of structured forms of worship, discussing the merits and methods of worship styles, including extempore prayer versus prepared services, and how they can collectively engage congregational worshippers. His reflections set the stage for a deeper exploration of the specific services and their historical contexts that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
