The Directory for the Public Worship of God

Directory of Public Worship (1644)
Book •
The Directory for the Public Worship of God (1644) was produced by English Presbyterian divines as a manual for conducting worship and sanctifying the Lord's Day during the Westminster period.

It outlines duties for public and private worship, guidance on preaching, sacraments, catechizing, and pastoral care, reflecting Reformed convictions about the means of grace.

The Directory served as an alternative to the Anglican Book of Common Prayer and influenced Reformed worship practices in Britain and beyond.

Its historical prescriptions emphasize the whole day's sanctification, family catechesis, and the importance of sermon repetition and holy conferences.

Modern Reformed writers and churches often consult the Directory when discussing worship renewal and Sabbath observance.
