What exactly makes a church "classically Anglican?" TEC I have been attending is liturgical, & we sing hymns with the choir & organ.
As much as I love this particular church, I struggle with arriving on time, especially if I want to attend Sunday school (the church is in a different city from where I live).
Today I tried attending a much closer TEC in my city that I visited once before & I found it off-putting for the same reasons I found when I first visited: too big (4 services) & 2 services occurring at same time - one with choir & organ & hymns, & one "contemporary" band service in another building. As I anticipated, there were almost no young adults at all in the " traditional" service. The kids liturgy is only offered during the "contemporary" service. I can't even put into words how irritating I find that to be...but anyway...
So does "classical Anglicanism" have anything to do with music? What else?
Thanks.
