What is a liturgical service?

Answer 1

The liturgical Psalms, so called because they were most likely used in special festivals or services of worship in the life of Ancient Israel. For example, the Royal Psalms likely had their original setting in the coronation of Israel's king. While they were preserved and adapted to other uses long after the monarchy came to an end, the remnants of their original purpose is often obvious and helps understand some of the features in the Psalms. The Covenant Psalms may have had their original setting in an annual covenant renewal ceremony, while the Songs of Zion and the Temple Liturgies could be used for any of several festivals celebrated in Jerusalem.

Answer 2

Liturgical prayers are those offered during any of the liturgies of the church. This includes Sunday mass, daily mass, the liturgy of the hours, wedding and funeral masses, etc.

Answer 3

Throughout the year there are days set aside for certain observances. For example, Christmas and Easter have their days. In some churches every Sunday has a date such as the second Sunday after Pentecost, Epiphany, St. Valentines, All Saints' Day, etc.

If you follow the liturgical year then your sermons are usually targeted to the days so the entire story of The Bible and its people are covered.

In the baptist church I have seen that the Sunday school lessons are usually liturgical and the pulpit messages are usually evangelical.
