Thanks Paul! We don't do lectionaries at my church but I am always very curious about them so I take a peek at my Father-In-Law's lutheran lectionary every now and then :)

On a related note, do you know of any more conservative/fundamental lectionaries? Liberal is a big term so I'm not sure how "liberal" they are in your eyes. I don't mean that to be derogatory... just curious as I put myself on more of the conservative side of the spectrum.

Hi Mattillo. I deliberately said liberal end to avoid any theological discussions. I don't mind saying I'm conservative, evangelical. I'm not aware of any lectionary commentary sets that are along those lines. I don't think following the lectionary should prevent one from being conservative. It just seems there aren't any sets that cater to that theological persuasion. The sets I have aren't raving liberal, but you can observe the undertone. Hence, I rarely turn to them.
Fair enough and thank you Paul. Wasn't trying to engage in theological discussions but it is nice to know which way people think certain things may lean. As you can tell, I haven't poked through them much.
Good day to you sir

Many years ago, actually decades ago, I once had a calendar in combination with the Anglican lectionary, which I had bought from CMS. I looked up their web shop, but it's currently not available, which is not surprising, since it's early in the year... It's also possible that they don't sell this type of calendar any longer at all.
As an alternative, the number of lectionaries extant from the early church is quite innumerable, and those guys were quite conservative... I'm just wondering whether any of those ancient lectionaries are even available in Logos.

Thanks. I wasn't worried about your sensitivities but I know it can create drama.
Matillo, the lectionary commentaries I just use them for ideas. I’m not really a lectionary preacher. They’re more just for reference.
Lectionaries are not conservative or liberal although some progressive authors have authored unofficial lectionaries which use a non-standard canon and therefore can be considered "progressive". The structure of all lectionaries - across time and geography - is quite similar with a rather limited variation in readings. Think of nearly any official lectionary as having the following structure.
I have read somewhere but never been able to actually verify that churches that use a lectionary have a higher percentage of sermons/homilies based on the Gospels while free-form selection churches have a higher percentage based on the epistles. One could say that all lectionaries are conservative in that their pedigree goes back to the time of Ezra which means, I guess, that all the free-form selection churches must be liberal.
P.S. many of us rarely think of Bible resources as liberal/conservative rather we think in terms of accurate/inaccurate. The two organizational principles have little correlation.
Orthodox Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."
Thank you MJ! I find the idea of lectionaries fascinating so that is some good information.
I misspoke before as well. I was referring to the commentaries on Lectionary readings before but I wasn’t clear
Jan Krohn: I'm just wondering whether any of those ancient lectionaries are even available in Logos.
No, and the implementation of the ordo within the lectionary makes it difficult for Logos to support lectionaries not in current use. Logos should bite the bullet and do a redesign - it would greatly decrease the maintenance cost.

These are usually available a few weeks before the start of the liturgical year -- often you have to preorder to be certain of nabbing one.
What is the CMS and where would one go to preorder?
Mattillo: What is the CMS and where would one go to preorder?
Church Mission Society. There's a shop on their website, but I got that calendar at a mission themed church service while I was living in the UK at the time. Not sure if it's ever possible to get at the web shop.
I'm guessing this is:
