In the second decade of the twenty-first century, Quakers are increasingly divided over matters of theology, religious belonging, and the status of Friends' Christian past.
The long-held priorities of Quakerism--simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality--are so universally attractive and so urgently needed in today's world,it begs the question, Is there a little bit of Quaker in all of us?
This memoir tells the story of a man's life, particularly his spiritual journey as a minister in the Religious Society of Friends. Lloyd Lee Wilson began keeping a journal when he was eight years old, and he has kept journaling his entire life.
Brian Drayton was led to write the letters, blog postings, and messages to contemporary Quakers in this collection “out of a sense of requirement in conjunction with service in gospel ministry.”
