For use in daily prayer by churches, groups and individuals, this has been designed to make the Daily Office accessible and can be used with or without a minister.

The book has a durable binding which allows the book to open flat and has four ribbon markers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Historically Sound, 24 April 2003
By P. S. JONES "jonesylar" (Liverpool, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As someone who has studied and researched the daily offices to a great extent, I can recommend Celebrating Common Prayer. As a Western liturgy, it combines the best historical overview of basic office shapes with ancient and modern features. Common Worship's 'Daily Prayer' is a poor relation to this major work. An influential (RC) monastic community in France has pronounced it one of the purest modern liturgies of our time, and it is suitable for adaptation by classical (Catholic, Anglican) Christians as well as those of the Free Churches. Although not compatible with the commonly accepted Revised Common Lectionary, and probably in need of some alteration, the Lectionary in CCP by David Silk is one of the nearest to ancient tradition I have studied, better than the repetitive, predictable and 'safe' Common Worship daily lectionary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Celebrating Common Prayer, 3 Dec 2002
By Rev Christopher Trefor Davies (SHEFFIELD, South Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
As a former frair in the catholic church, I have been exploring a number of books for use now that I am "in another place" (no, not deceased, just a Baptist). CCP is truly a godsend for any individual or group that wishes to engage in regular prayer. I find it easy to use, and excellent in terms of its resources. I can highly recommend it, especially for those traditions within the Christian Church that have not normally used a "Divine Office" Text. Thanks to all at SSF!

4.0 out of 5 stars A pretty practical prayer book, 18 Dec 2002
The book is a very good condensation of the Celebrating Common Prayer full edition, and having used it for almost a month, I believe that it has indeed helped me develop a prayer routine that does not require me to jump hoops.
The psalms do lack the use of refrains (antiphons) which might make it impossible to do some forms of public recitation of the office and the psalms. I would recommend this for people who travel, as others have, and as I would normally use it.
