A hands-on guide to the new Common Worship marriage service - including the new form for Thanksgiving for Marriage. It seeks to offer straightforward and realistic ideas about how to use the services in your church. Drawing on his parish experience, Stephen Lake includes suggestions for a range of local situations, grounded in the thinking behind the new provisions. The new features of the services are set out, highlighting the differences from ASB and BCP. The introduction by Andrew Burnham, a member of the Liturgical Commission and of the General Synod Revision Committee working on the services, provides an insight into the preparation of the texts and the reasons why they are presented in this way.
