Focusing on the liturgy of the Mar Thoma Church, this book examines its Eucharistic practices, specifically the prayer for illumination. It evaluates the church's Eastern and Reformed identity by referencing early Eastern fathers like Gregory Nazianzen and Athanasius, alongside Reformer John Calvin. The author compares the Mar Thoma prayer for illumination to those found in the Syrian liturgy and the Genevan psalter. Through this analysis, the book draws observations and implications relevant to the Mar Thoma Church's liturgical identity.
