We know there are plenty of Quakers who only need a little nudge to share their perspectives with a wider audience. If you know anyone who should write about this topic, please share this post with them!
There was once a time during which Quakers mostly kept to themselves. But modern Friends are very involved in the world and spend a lot of time working with people of all faiths.
Our October issue will look at Ecumenical and Interfaith Friends. Some questions that might be addressed:
- What do Friends raised in other traditions bring to us?
- What about Friends whose spirituality also embraces other faiths?
- How do we make common ground with other Christians?
- What is the balance between keeping to our own traditions and opening up to others?
- Is there a danger of being too ecumenical? Is it possible to lose our own beliefs?
