When worshipping we’re all connecting to the divine essence, or God, or Spirit or – we use many different terms but we’re all connecting to the same thing within that silence.
I am very, very happy to know that where I worship speaks to many, many aspects of a community that is in need, that is in harm’s way, who are threatened, and that’s just how we put our faith in action.

‘…if you think about our testimonies– peace, simplicity, truth, and integrity– there’s really no stronger test of those than dealing with a crying infant or an angry two-year old or a spouse who’s really frustrated you for falling asleep when all hell is breaking loose.’

…if you think about it some of the most influential books in the history of Quakerism (George Fox’s journal and John Woolman’s journal) were spiritual autobiographies. So there’s a unique kind of connection between spiritual autobiography and Quakerism.
