Quaker Books

Drawing on experience in many different Quaker meetings in Britain, this book offers support to Friends as they nurture the life of their worshipping community. It aims to support new and existing elders and overseers in this vital role.

This, the 2001 Swarthmore lecture, is the author's wake-up call to alert us to a falling-away from our previous tradition of concern in and support for those engaged in, commerce and public affairs.
