Really deepened my thinking about Quakerism. I am from the liberal wing of Quakerism so some of the "Godly" language required translation, but I really appreciated the perspective offered here.

An interesting set of essays with a clear and Christ-centred approach to Gospel Order.

Wow! This a book to read and keep and reference again and again if you are Quaker or a seeker in general.

Lloyd Lee Wilson lays out the Quaker (Conservative) understanding of community life and worship.
My favorite quote:
"...each worshiper brings that amount of silence which (s)he has been able to nurture through daily practices and disciplines, and together the assembly creates a larger silence, in which the eternally present divine Word may be more clearly heard" (35).

A deep, spirit-led group of essays that manage to be both nurturing and challenging. Highly recommended.
