"Reformed worship is simple in that it requires no elaborate ritual, no prescribed book of common prayer, but is merely based on the unadorned an unpretentious principles and order found in the Bible, by precept and example, which supply the substance of new-covenant worship. There is of course, a small but intelligent and literate movement advocating formal liturgical renewal in Reformed evangelicalism. Usually emphasizing the contributions of the early church and the early Reformed liturgies of Strasbourg and Geneva and unwittingly adopting a late-nineteenth-century Scoto-Catholic interpretation of their significance, this movement, open to a more Lutheran view of the sacraments (via the Mercersburg theology) and generally scathing in it estimation of the Westminster Directory and Puritan worship, is working to "liturgicalize" Reformed and evangelical corporate worship. [Footnote 18: A representative example of this tendency is found in Jeffrey J Meyers, The Lord's Service (St Louis: Providence Presbyterian Church, 1999).] This group propounds what Old calls "Liturgical Romanticism" - the view that, if we could just get back to Bucer's liturgy all would be put right in the church today! This reform effort seems to have captured the imaginations of many fine young conservative Reformed ordinands and shares a kinship with "the great traditions" movement evident in broader evangelicalism. This is not our call however. Our call is to something both simpler and more profound. We are not harkening the church to fixed forms from the past, however elegant or even consonant with Reformed worship they may be. We are instead, calling the church to the Bible - to its simple principles and patterns" (p.69).
