Well, 3.143 chapters now.The PCA does not have a directory for public worship; well, 2 or 3 chapters but not addressing this.
I would suspect that would be seriously litigated in opposition too. We were not able to run it in the PCA issue of The Confessional Presbyterian, which is v19, now out and available (deadlines and needed work), but this is an article on the PCA's DfPW: https://pcapolity.com/2024/01/10/the-unfinished-business-of-the-pca-founding/Well, 3.143 chapters now.
I just noticed something interesting the other day. A lawyer might argue that BCO 12-5 e. may make more of the Directory binding on the Session than is commonly thought.
"To exercise, in accordance with the Directory for Worship, authority over the time and place of the preaching of the Word and the administration of the Sacraments, over all other religious services, over the music in the services..."
The statement of the Third General Assembly that the bulk of the Directory isn't binding does not, in itself, appear to be binding. And that section doesn't limit it to the portions commonly thought to have constitutional authority.
