Forum on "The Call to Radical Faithfulness" (part 2)


November 14, 2021

This forum is Part II of a series based on a short book:

Douglas Gwynn: The Call to Radical Faithfulness:  Covenant in Quaker Experience.

Gary Whiting will lead the discussion.  He will have copies of the book available at Meeting for Worship until mid-November.  You can also buy a copy for $10 at FGC Quakerbooks.  

Gwyn addresses an often unacknowledged schism in both our little Society and our larger society -- between the insistence on a Christocentric orientation and a love for the unity brought about by universalistic sensibilities.  This is no small issue, though Gwyn feels that the story of our Society embodies the solution.

Part I of the book consists of stories of early Quakers and the peril they underwent. 

Part II of the book shows how Quaker faith and practice through the centuries has expressed and enacted a covenantal life in the changing circumstances of a modern world.
