The Architecture of Holy Communion

The Anglican liturgy has always received much attention, as one of the major focal points of the Anglican tradition. However in recent decades it has been uniquely attacked by revisionist historians as an entry point into discarding the historic liturgy altogether. And yet despite claims to having scholarship, there has been little comment on one of the most important elements of the Anglican Rite of Holy Communion.We speak with Fr. Gavin Dunbar, who has written a brand new study of the theology of Holy Communion as embedded in the classical Anglican Prayer Books, such as the 1662 and the 1928 (American). He helps dispel the wrong-minded revisionism of the 20th century critics, and uncover an incredible tapestry that lay at the root of the Rite that had been penned by Archbishop Thomas Cranmer, in the timeless tradition of the universal church.
