Preachers typically either explore one of the Bible Readings which have been heard in a service or consider the theme of the day - the events of Christmas Easter, Pentecost, etc or the Saint being commemorated. But the liturgy includes many texts which become very familiar through repetition but which are not often thought about. I am particularly interested in collects and I discuss a number of those in this section, but also some other important liturgical texts. Some of these were originally sermons others were articles written for various purposes
