Being a Quaker A Guide for Newcomers by Geoffrey Durham
British friend Geoffrey Durham looks at modern Quakerism and explains what can be said (for instance how a Quaker meeting for business operates), and what cannot be said (for instance what Quakers think happens after death) and why. He talks of the testimonies, being led by the spirit, the gathered meeting, and what being an experiential religion means. A full and inspiring, but distinctively different introduction to the Society of Friends. The author is a member of the Quaker Quest program in Britain.
